Mamacita
Alessa Ray Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
You tried to hook me speaking my native words (Hola)
And in my head I thought who's this silly man
I knew you liked me from the first glance
Then we start to dance (You took me by my hand)
You looked me in the eyes (You tried to win my heart)
You put me in a trance when you called me
Yeah when you called me
Mamacita
Cuando me llamas Mamacita
Cuando me llamas Mamacita me siento tu señorita
Ya vez
Asi es
Cuando me llamas Mamacita
Cuando me llamas Mamacita
Love when you call me Mamacita
The very next time we met (July the 10th)
A day that I'll never forget (Never forget)
I was out n about my day
When I ran into you and yo Bae
Then you came by my side (Came by my side)
Tryin to apologize (Apologize)
Feels like you're occupied
Why did you have to lie?
Go on and call her
Mamacita
Cuando la llamas Mamacita
Cuando la llamas Mamacita se siente tu señorita
Ya vez
Asi es
Cuando la llamas Mamacita
Cuando la llamas Mamacita
Loves when you call her Mamacita
Se que eres un Don Juan, y que ya no cambiaras
Pero debo admitir que me gustas
So for tonight I'll be your Bae and you can call me
Mamacita
Love when you call me Mamacita
Love when you call me Mamacita makes me feel your señorita
Love when
Love when
Love when you call me Mamacita
Love when you call me Mamacita
Cuando me llamas Mamacita
In "Mamacita" by Alessa Ray, the lyrics tell the story of a romantic encounter between the singer and a man who tries to impress her by speaking her native language. The song begins with a flashback to the day they first met, where he caught her attention with his attempts to connect through language and a dance. She acknowledges that she knew he liked her from their initial interaction and describes being mesmerized by his calls.
The lyrics then shift to a later encounter, where the man is accompanied by another woman, presumably his partner or "Bae." He approaches the singer to apologize, but she questions his sincerity and feels that he is preoccupied with his other relationship. Despite his actions, she still calls him "Don Juan" and admits that she is attracted to him. In this moment, she decides to be his "Bae" for the night and lets him call her "Mamacita."
The repetition of the phrase "Mamacita" throughout the song highlights the theme of affection and desire. It emphasizes the singer's enjoyment when he calls her by that endearing term and makes her feel like his "señorita." The lyrics reveal a complex dynamic between two individuals who share a mutual attraction but are also aware of the complexities and potential complications of their connection.
