[English]

Burn it all down, need to buy another round

Gonna light up in the sound of the speaker

Knee socks, drink tequila on the rocks

'Til you make your body pops to the speaker

Burn it all down, need to buy another round

Gonna light up in the sound of the speaker

Show your knee socks, drink tequila on the rocks

'Til you make your body pops to the speaker

(I wanna go) Downtown where my posse's at

(Because I got) nine lives like a kitty cat

(Uh, you wanna roll, that's how I roll)

(I wanna go) bling-bling when I hear that bass

(I'm gonna do) my thing if you wanna taste

(Uh, you better know, uh, that's how I roll)

Bum-bum-bum-ba-da-dee-dum-bum-bum

Bum-bum-bum-ba-da-dee-dum-bum-bum

Bum-bum-bum-ba-da-dee-dum-bum-bum

Bum-bum-bum-ba-da-dee-dum-bum-bum

Feel the earthquake, gonna make your body shake

'Til the circuits starts to break in the speaker

Can we get fly? Helicopter in the sky

'Cause we turn it up high in the speaker

If you know what it takes to be my man

We can go make love together

You can be my thug tonight

We can tear it up tonight

(I wanna go) Downtown where my posse's at

(Because I got) nine lives like a kitty cat

(Uh, you wanna roll, that's how I roll)

(I wanna go) bling-bling when I hear that bass

(I'm gonna do) my thing if you wanna taste

(Uh, you better know, uh, that's how I roll)

Bum-bum-bum-ba-da-dee-dum-bum-bum

Bum-bum-bum-ba-da-dee-dum-bum-bum

Bum-bum-bum-ba-da-dee-dum-bum-bum

Bum-bum-bum-ba-da-dee-dum-bum-bum

...

Shimmy, shimmy-ya, shimmy-yo, shimmy-yay

We could give them what they want or we could take it away

Try our luck tonight, we can tear it up tonight

If you know what it takes to be my man

We can go make love together

You can be my thug tonight

We can tear it up tonight

(I wanna go) Downtown where my posse's at

(Because I got) nine lives like a kitty cat

(Uh, you wanna roll, that's how I roll)

(I wanna go) bling-bling when I hear that bass

(I'm gonna do) my thing if you wanna taste

(Uh, you better know, uh, that's how I roll)

Bum-bum-bum-ba-da-dee-dum-bum-bum

Bum-bum-bum-ba-da-dee-dum-bum-bum

Bum-bum-bum-ba-da-dee-dum-bum-bum

Bum-bum-bum-ba-da-dee-dum-bum-bum
