[English]

Proud as a dancer (Alizzz)

Lying like a salesman (Ching)

Forgotten like a loser

And each passing year I get worse

The Dominican dembow

Rum arrives from Havana (Let’s go, let’s go)

The Madrid native in the mix

With beautiful girls in the crowd

And if I seem like a son of a bitch, what can I do?

If you give me a kiss, I’m going to bite you

I never told you I love you, what a fool I was (Hey)

Who wouldn’t want money to hand out? (Ti-ti, ti-ti, ti-ti)

To hand out (How could I not?) (Ti-ti, ti-ti, ti-ti, ching)

To hand out (How’s that?) (Ti-ti, ti-ti, ti-ti)

To hand out (Ti-ti, ti-ti, ti-ti)

To hand out

I never did what I should've, I’m not going to lie (No)

Now she’s with another dude, but she’s mine (Hey, hey, hey, hey)

Who wouldn’t want money to hand out? (Yo, yo, yo)

I’ll build a legend and then I’ll die (Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh)

I did it all for Madrid, damn, for Madrid (Ahh)

Two bottles for the crew, two more for me

I never told you I love you (no), what a fool I was (Rrra)

Who doesn’t want money to hand out? (Ti-ti, ti-ti, ti-ti)

To hand out (Ti-ti, ti-ti, ti-ti, ching)

To hand out (Ti-ti, ti-ti, ti-ti)

To hand out (Ti-ti, ti-ti, ti-ti)

One, two, three, and that

Let’s go, that’s it (Uff, ufff)

How?

Girl, uh

Hey, hey, hey, how’s it? And tell me who doesn’t want to have? (Who?)

Tell me who’s handing out (And that)

Tell me who doesn’t want to have (Tell me, tell me who)

Tell me who’s handing out (That’s it, that’s it)

Tell me who doesn’t want to have (Tell me who)

Tell me who’s handing out

Tell me who doesn’t want to have (Who, who)

Tell me who’s handing out (Who, who, who, that’s it)

Orgulloso como un baila'or (Alizzz)

Mentiroso como un vendedor (Ching)

Olvidado como un perdedor

Y cada año que pasa voy a peor

El dembow de Dominicana

El ron me llega de La Habana (Vámono', vámono')

El madrileño en la jugada

Con chicas guapas en la grada

Y si parezco un hijo'eputa, ¿qué le voy a hacer?

Si me das un beso tuyo te voy a morder

Nunca te dije que te quiero, qué tonto fui (Ey)

¿Quién no quie' tener dinero para repartir? (Ti-ti, ti-ti, ti-ti)

Ahora está con otro pollo, pero ella es de mí (Ey, ey, ey, ey)

Voy a construir una leyenda y luego voy a morir (Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh)

Lo hice todo por Madrid, puta, por Madrid (Ahh)

Dos botellas pa' la ganga, dos más para mí

Nunca te dije que te quiero (no), qué tonto fui (Rrra)
