Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Salsa salsa
De la buena de la rica, canela
Salsa salsa
Caminando, echando un pie
Salsa salsa
Pero que rico, pero que rico
Salsa salsa
Salsa salsa
Salsita mama, salsitaaa
Salsa salsa
Para los salseros, camina mamá
Vengo caminando despacito vengo pisando fuerte
Con ganas de triunfar
Sali de mi tierra hermosa
Con ganas de triunfar
Sali de mi tierra hermosa
Sin saber que la vida es dura
Que tiene espinas tiene rosas
Vengo caminando despacito vengo pisando fuerte.
Tanto daño que me hicieron
Tanto mal que resivi
Tanto daño que me hicieron
Tanto mal que resivi
No importo cuanto lloraba
No importo lo que sufri
Vengo caminando despacito vengo pisando fuerte.
Por fin llego la hora
De gritar esto que siento
Por fin llego la hora
De gritar esto que siento
Cada loco con su tema
Cada cosa a su momento
Vengo caminando despacito vengo pisando fuerte.
El dia que mi garganta
No pueda cantar el son
El dia que mi garganta
No pueda cantar el son
Como yo he sido sincero
Cantara mi corazon
Vengo caminando despacito vengo pisando fuerte
Si te preguntan que es lo que suena
Miguel Enriquez que esta en escena
Si te preocupa y te da asonbro
Es la salsa que esta en el bombo.
