¡Rompe, rompe, rompe! (bien guilla'o!)

¡Rompe, rompe, rompe! (ese cuerpo ella lo!)

¡Rompe, rompe, rompe! (bien guilla'o!) (are you ready?)

¡Rompe, rompe, rompe! (break it down!)

¡Rompe, rompe, rompe! (the way she moves ella lo!)

¡Rompe, rompe, rompe! (break it down!) (lets go!)

G-Unit!

I'm on the crowd like when the dees roll up

So all the money in my jeans fold up

Hold up

Don't get yo eyes swoll up

Whole black and blue on the bottom

I love the beef

Niggas smackin' you ain't a problem

I got family in Bronxsay

And family in the City

New yitty

The home of 'Big L'

And Biggie, uh

I'm so pretty

Pinky ring about fitty

Doing Fifty in the lac

With D-Y on the track

Me encanta como te mueves y toda esa sandunga

Con curvas más calientes que el sur

Right thru, enséñame si tienes la actitud, mami

Daddy, go!, Daddy, go!, Daddy, go-go!

G-Unit!

All my Puerto-Rican people holla vámonos

My getto report card

I made the honor roll (yeah)

It's getting hot in here

Shorty taking off her clothes

Shake what yo' mama gave ya

Make me holla "Whoa!"

We got the whole club outta control (c'mon)

And Daddy Yankee got me smokin' that Boricua dro

I got my G-Unit boots on

So you can get stomp

Or you can quit playin' and c'mon and get crunk!

Yeah!

¡Rompe, rompe, rompe! (bien guilla'o!)

¡Rompe, rompe, rompe! (ese cuerpo ella lo!)

¡Rompe, rompe, rompe! (bien guilla'o!) (are you ready?)

¡Rompe, rompe, rompe! (break it down!)

¡Rompe, rompe, rompe! (the way she moves ella lo!)

¡Rompe, rompe, rompe! (break it down!) (let's go)

Pégate para 'ca mujer

Mira lo que tú tienes que hacer

Te irán a matar con la cara que me tienes

Rompe que rompe esa nalga

Él no se va hasta el amanecer

Claro que sí, que estamos bien

Te pongo la mano en un negocio

Que es más de buena fe

If you give me that

I give you some of esto

If you give me that

I give you some of esto

If you give me that

I give you some of esto

Como dicen los boricuas

Te vo'a dar Guaya-ke-ke

De Puerto Rico a Los Ángeles

De New York al Ghetto Style

Este guerrero latino ha representa'o

Muero de pie antes de vivir arrodilla'o

Y tú eres feka (yeah!)

Más feka que China Town

Ando con el G-Unit que es la unidad gorilla

Combinación perfecta de los real killa'

Las matemáticas son fáciles, no seas bruto papi

4 menos 3 es igual a Cangri

What?

¡Rompe, rompe, rompe! (bien guilla'o)

¡Rompe, rompe, rompe! (ese cuerpo ella lo!)

¡Rompe, rompe rompe! (bien guilla'o) (are you ready?)

¡Rompe, rompe, rompe! (break it down!)

¡Rompe, rompe, rompe! (the way she moves ella lo!)

¡Rompe, rompe, rompe! (break it down) (let's go)

Nanananana

Who's this?

Who-who?

Who's this?

You know who's this!

Da-ddy Yankee! (you know) (Ja, ja)

Oh, oh!

En directo! (G-G)

Oh, oh!

Daddy Yankee, you!

G-Unit!

Lloyd Banks!

Young Buck!
