Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Thank you so much, Meghan
I'm looking forward to playing your track

Mama wanna mambo, mambo
Mama wanna mambo, mambo
Baby, why don't we go, we go
Somewhere we can mambo, mambo?
Spin me 'round and around
I've been running, running 'round and around
I'm in need, I think I need a night out
Baby, where you gonna take me right now?

Where we can drop it low
Baby, keep it hot or keep it tropical
Left and to the right
We 'bout to rock the boat
People gonna stare but let 'em watch, watch the show

Mama wanna mambo, mambo
Mama wanna mambo, mambo
Baby, why don't we go, we go
Somewhere we can mambo, mambo? (Ayy)
Mama wanna mambo, mambo
Mama wanna mambo, mambo
Baby, why don't we go, we go
Somewhere we can mambo, mambo? (Rude gyal)

And you like it like that, poco makeup, natural (uh, yeah)
I bet you if you throw your pitch
I'm gonna swing it right back (right)
I'm Natasha, nice to meet you, pero dime "Nati", now
Me suelto little by little, no rushin', make me relax
Sé que esta' loco de probar mi dummy flavor
Papi, yo también, cuando te vi te puse label
Pídete dos shots and can you please do me a favor? (Just one)
Come and be my guest, let's mambo now, no quiero later

Mama wanna mambo, mambo
Mama wanna mambo, mambo
Baby, why don't we go, we go
Somewhere we can mambo, mambo? (Mambo)
Mama wanna mambo, mambo
Mama wanna mambo, mambo
Baby, why don't we go, we go
Somewhere we can mambo, mambo?

(Arturo)

Mama wanna mambo, mambo
Mama wanna mambo, mambo
Baby, why don't we go, we go
Somewhere we can mambo, mambo? (Somewhere we can mambo)
Mama wanna mambo, mambo
Mama wanna mambo, mambo
I said, baby, why don't we go, we go
Somewhere we can mambo, mambo?

Ohh-oh
Rude gyal (uh)
Ohh
Somewhere we can mambo, mambo
