Hey Ma
Lyrics:
[English]
I'm here like for one night
So we don't gotta waste time
I know that you feel it
My hands upon your waist-line
So, won't you come closer? (Yeah)
Let me know you're all mine (let me know)
Let me know you're all mine (let go)
And I might stay tonight, but not for long
And I might say goodbye
Right now, baby, right now
I need you
(Hey mama, hey mama, hey mama, hey ma')
I need you
(Hey mama, hey mama, hey mama, hey ma')
Girl, it's getting hotter, I can't take much more
I need you
(Hey mama, hey mama, hey mama, hey ma')
I need you
...
I am what they wanna be, check the stacks (ha-ha)
James Bond in the flesh, girl, that's a fact
I was raised by OGs, so I'm low-key (uh-huh)
How much you need? And you like, "Baby believe me"
I'm a freak that can eat, that can beat
That can treat you like that queen, that you was meant to be (oh, yeah)
I'm the good, I'm that raw, I'm that slick, I'm the dawg
With nothing to something, to had it all
Now, mami, just watch, learn and listen
I got her feeling so good she stay twitchin' (ha-ha)
But before I banish, she spoke Spanish
She said, "Papito rico, te necesito"
I might stay tonight, but not for long
And I might say goodbye
But right now, yeah, baby, right now
I need you
(Hey mama, hey mama, hey mama, hey ma')
I need you
(Hey mama, hey mama, hey mama, hey ma')
Girl, it's getting hotter, I can't take much more
I need you
(Hey mama, hey mama, hey mama, hey ma')
I need you
...
I need you
(Hey!)
If you touch me right (if you touch me right)
Then I might stay the night (I might stay the night)
Oh, we can take our time (we could take our time)
I know we gotta say goodbye (no, no, no)
I know we gotta say goodbye (no, no, no, no, no, no)
I need you
(Hey mama, hey mama, hey mama, hey ma') (oh)
I need you
(Hey mama, hey mama, hey mama, hey ma')
Girl, it's getting hotter, I can't take much more
I need you
(Hey mama, hey mama, hey mama, hey ma') (ooh-oh, yeah)
I need you
(Yeah-yeah, oh)
I need you (hey-ey)
Pa mi gente latina, stand up!
Cuba!
I need you
