Ella me tiene loco
Ella me tiene loco

She's the one that always turns me on
Sexy angel fallen from heaven
She's the one that always drives me wild
In her arms she's driving forever

Así es María
Blanca como el día
Pero es veneno si te quieres enamorar

Así es María
Tan caliente y fría
Que si te la bebes de seguro te va a matar

Un, dos, tres
Un pasito pa'lante, María
Un, dos, tres
Un pasito pa' atrás (Aunque me muera, ahora, María)

Un, dos, tres
Un pasito pa'lante, María
Un, dos, tres (María, I want to make you mine)
Un pasito pa' atrás

Ella me tiene loco

María is an angel in disguise
Feeds my love with her devotion
Searching for a special place to hide
As she conquers all my emotion

Así es María
Blanca como el día
Pero es veneno si te quieres enamorar

Así es María
Tan caliente y fría
Que si te la bebes de seguro te va a matar

Un, dos, tres
Un pasito pa'lante, María
Un, dos, tres
Un pasito pa' atrás (Aunque me muera, ahora, María)

Un, dos, tres

Overall Meaning

The song "Mary Mary" by Deborah Joy Imani Winans, Kierra "KiKi" Sheard and Mary Mary is a Spanish-inspired track with catchy rhythms and romantically charged lyrics. The song is a homage to a woman named Maria who captures the singer's heart and drives him crazy with her beauty and unpredictable moods. The lyrics describe Maria as an angel and at the same time, a poisonous concoction that leads to downfall. The song starts with the lines "Un, dos, tres, Un pasito pa'lante, María" which means "One, two, three, One step forward, Maria" and then follows it up with "Un, dos, tres, Un pasito pa' atrás" which means "One, two, three, one step back". The word "epa" is used to emphasize the backward movement.

The chorus repeats the same phrase with a slightly different ending. The lyrics "ella me tiene loco" mean "she drives me crazy" and it sets the tone for the rest of the song. The verses are in Spanish, and they describe Maria's beauty as well as her dual nature. She is called "blanca como el día" which means "white as the day" and "tan caliente y fría" which means "as hot as cold". The song is an interesting mix of Spanish and English and provides a good example of bilingual songwriting. Overall, the song is a celebration of love and desire with a Latin flair.
