La la la la la la

Yandel!

La la la la la la

If I catch you in the club dancing alone,

I’ll stick to you, and to hell with it.

If I see you there, dancing alone,

I’ll stick to you, and to hell with it.

If I catch you in the club dancing alone,

I’ll stick to you, and to hell with it.

If I see you there, dancing alone,

I’ll stick to you, and to hell with it.

Don’t slack off, so bring your A-game.

Go wild, rip those jeans.

Ladies, throw your panties in the trash,

’cause your man’s coming to sweep you off your feet.

No weaklings allowed at this party, no.

This is the party for the real ones.

The house is packed with the big shots,

heavyweights, hustlers, and shooters.

If I catch you in the club dancing alone,

I’ll stick to you, and to hell with it.

If I see you there, dancing alone,

I’ll stick to you, and to hell with it.

If I catch you in the club dancing alone,

I’ll stick to you, and to hell with it.

If I see you there, dancing alone,

I’ll stick to you, and to hell with it.

There’s no law here,

you’re looking for this cat.

I’ve been eyeing you for a while.

Take off your clothes, shoes and all.

But let her go, she’s a mess.

Too much gets boring, too little gets you hooked.

Her reputation never fades.

She’s got an attitude, tell her to get lost.

Don’t hold back, come on, get wild,

I wanna take you on a different route.

I wanna spank you with the baton,

what I love most is that you’re so fine (Aju!)

Don’t hold back, come on, get wild,

I wanna take you on a different route.

I wanna spank you with the baton,

what I love most is that you’re so fine (Aju!)

If I catch you in the club dancing alone,

I’ll stick to you, and to hell with it.

If I see you there, dancing alone,

I’ll stick to you, and to hell with it.

If I catch you in the club dancing alone,

I’ll stick to you, and to hell with it.

If I see you there, dancing alone,

I’ll stick to you, and to hell with it.

If I catch you in the club dancing alone,

I’ll stick to you, and to hell with it.

If I see you there, dancing alone,

I’ll stick to you, and to hell with it.

Quiero azotarte con la batuta,

lo que más me gusta es que tú eres bien (Aju!)
