Corta su mini, anda en bajitaHer mini skirt is short, she moves down low,
Las nalgas grandes, tú chiquititaWith big curves, but you are so petite,
To’ el mundo te deseaEveryone desires you,
Juro que cuando yo te veaI swear it when I see you.
Si llego pa’ la disco y te veo entrarIf I arrive at the club and see you walk in,
Como un gangster te vo’ a secuestrarLike a bad boy, I’ll steal you away.
Hoy voy a darte duro como un shot de mezcalToday I’ll hit you hard like a shot of mezcal.
Juro cuando te veaI swear it when I see you.
Tú eres una bandida, tú te vas a prestarYou are a rebel, you’re going to give in.
Si estas soltera, no voy a preguntarIf you are single, I’m not going to ask.
Hoy tú te vas conmigo, yo te voy a raptarToday you’re leaving with me, I’m going to sweep you away.
To’ el mundo la deseaEveryone desires her.
En lo oscuro te me pego pa’ azotarteIn the dark I press against you to rock your world.
Te tiran, pero no pueden ganarteThey shoot their shot, but they can’t win you over.
Esas dos tetas grandes como ubi’ me compartesYou share those beautiful curves with me like a shared location.
Y si pregunta, dile que soy quien te parteAnd if anyone asks, tell them I’m the one who breaks you down.
Dale, ven, pégateGo on, come here, get close.
Si ponen un perreo ven, perreameIf they play a reggaeton track, come grind on me.
Con tu mirada bellaca provócameProvoke me with your wicked look.
Tú te crees mala, pues en la cama mátameYou think you’re bad, so completely destroy me in bed.
Da-dale ven pégateGo-go on, come here, get close.

Hoy voy a darte duro como un shot de mezcalToday I’ll hit you hard like a shot of mezcal.
Juro cuando te veaI swear it when I see you.
Tú eres una bandida, tú te vas a prestarYou are a rebel, you’re going to give in.
