Ay compañero a eso me refiero
Ven compañero soy tu azúcar, soy tu reina,
Amor, ven compañero
Y me pones a dormir por horas
Cuidado que estalla y vaya, toalla
Que tu ritmo sabrosón me matan
Y el vaivén de tus caderas me desbaratan
Ay compañero llama a los bomberos
Ay compañero estoy que me incinero
Ven compañero
Ven que vamos a bailar primero
Ven compañero
Ponte cerca que esto es un bolero
Agárrate fuerte y empieza a moverte!!!
Baila moreno que me vuelvo mulata
Que tu ritmo sabrosón me matan
Y el vaivén de tus caderas me desbaratan
Baila moreno que me vuelvo mulata
Que tu ritmo sabrosón me matan
Y el vaivén de tus caderas me desbaratan
Cuidado que estalla y vaya, toalla!!!
Baila moreno que me vuelvo mulata
Que tu ritmo sabrosón me matan
Y el vaivén de tus caderas me desbaratan
Baila moreno que me vuelvo mulata
Que tu ritmo sabrosón me matan
Y el vaivén de tus caderas me desbaratan
Baila moreno que me vuelvo mulata
Que tu ritmo sabrosón me matan
Y el vaivén de tus caderas me desbaratan
