Baby, the way that I'm working my body
Can tell that you already like it
I make you lose your cabeza, coloca
Baby we don't even need any music
'Cause we make the beat when we moving
You know that it's making me hot, hot, hot
We belong to the night, we belong to the music
So let's live in the moment of freedom that will get you wild
Let's ignite this fire up, across the world we take it up
Let me hear you screaming out loud

When I say go,
When I say viva
We'll take it low
Let's lose control
When I say go
We'll get it louder
Let's make it blow
Let's lose control

Ando buscando una latina

Yo y ella hicimos un clip
Regia, pelo largo
Christian Dior con cartera Gucci
Bella, bien chic
Los líderes con la diva, combinación nociva
Se juntaron los bori
Creando otro hit
Damas y caballeros suban las manos arriba
Sigan instrucciones
Cero presiones
Que fluyan tus emociones (WY Records)
Y déjate llevar por el hit

Ahora falta que se vaya
Dale restrella
Mami pa' pasarte de la raya
Tú eres la dura dura, tú tienes agallas
Róbame un beso
Apunta y no falla

Negrita dale hasta el suelo
Mucho calor
Sudándote el cuello
