[English]

Oh, what a doll

You look so pretty right now

You know well how you tease like that

Without a doubt, the best one of all

And the one I can handle

Since after all, it’s all just gossip

They say I'm a wild dog

It’s not true, flirt, I really love you

Girl, there’s none like you anywhere

My passion rises when I have you by my side

Time goes slow

You calm all my hell

And so you know I’m not playing around

I send you flowers every day, there aren’t many guys like me

So tell me, what’s up?

Girl, to keep the streak going

Pure Clave Especial, my friend

And pure Registered Trademark

Here you go, girl

And just so you know, baby doll

Beautiful, what did you do to me?

With you I hit the jackpot, I don’t ask for anything more

You undress all by yourself

What a body, those beautiful hips are just for me

Girl, there’s none like you anywhere

My passion rises when I have you by my side

Time goes slow

You calm all my hell

And so you know I’m not playing around

I send you flowers every day, there aren’t many guys like me

So tell me, what’s up?

Girl, to keep the streak going

...

[Spanish]

Ay, qué muñequita

Bien chula te miras ahorita

Tú sabes bien que así provocas

Sin duda la más buena de todas

Y la que soporte

Que al cabo son puros mitotes

Dicen que soy un perro suelto

No es cierto, coqueta, yo sí te quiero

Mija, como tú no existe ninguna

Nos sube la calentura cuando te tengo a mi lado

El tiempo se va lento

Tú calmas todito mi infierno

Y pa que sepas que no ando jugando

Te mando flores a diario, como este vato no hay tantos

Ya dime qué tranza

Mija, pa que actives la racha

Pura Clave Especial, compadre

Y pura Marca Registrada

Ahí te va, mija

Y ahí pa que sepas, mamacita

Chula, ¿qué me hiciste?

Contigo saqué lotería, ya no pido más

Solita te desvistes

Cuerpazo, esas lindas caderas para mí nomás

Mija, como tú no existe ninguna

Nos sube la calentura cuando te tengo a mi lado

El tiempo se va lento

Tú calmas todito mi infierno

Y pa que sepas que no ando jugando

Te mando flores a diario, como este vato no hay tantos

Ya dime qué tranza

Mija, pa que actives la racha
