Hey Ma
Pitbull Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm here like for one night
So we don't gotta waste time
I know that you feel it
My hands upon your waist land
So won't you, come closer
Let me know you're all mine (let me know)
Let me know you're all mine (let go)
And I might stay tonight
But not for long
And I might say goodbye
Right now, baby, right now

I need you
Hey mama, hey mama, hey mama, hey ma'
I need you
Hey mama, hey mama, hey mama, hey ma'
Girl, it's getting hotter
I can't take much more
I need you
Hey mama, hey mama, hey mama, hey ma'
I need you

I am what they wanna be, check the stats
James Bond in the flesh, girl, that's a fact
I was raised by OG's, so I'm low key (uh huh)
I'm what you need and you're like "Baby believe me"
I'm a freak that can eat, that can beat
That can treat you like the queen
That you was meant to be (Oh yeah)
I'm the good, I'm that raw, I'm that slick, I'm that dawg
With nothing to something, to have it all
Now, mami, just watch, learn and listen
I've got a feeling so good she stay switchin'
But before I banish, she spoke Spanish
She said: "Papito rico, te necesito"

I might stay tonight
But not for long
And I might say goodbye
But right now, yeah baby, right now

I need you
Hey mama, hey mama, hey mama, hey ma'
I need you
Hey mama, hey mama, hey mama, hey ma'
Girl, it's getting hotter
I can't take much more
I need you
Hey mama, hey mama, hey mama, hey ma'
I need you
I need you

If you touch me right (If you touch me right)
I might stay the night (I might stay the night)
Oh, we can take our time (We could take our time)
I know we gotta say goodbye, (No, no, no)
I know we gotta say goodbye (No, no)
No, no, no, no, no, no

I need you
Hey mama, hey mama, hey mama, hey ma'
I need you
Hey mama, hey mama, hey mama, hey ma'
Girl, it's getting hotter
I can't take much more
I need you
Hey mama, hey mama, hey mama, hey ma'
I need you (yeah yeah, oh yeah)

I need you, hey!
Pa' mi gente latina, stand up!




Cuba!
I need you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Pitbull's song Hey Ma are all about the irresistible attraction between two people who know they probably don't have a future together. Pitbull sings about being in the moment, focusing on the physical connection between the two, and enjoying it for what it is. He's looking for someone who can match him in every way; someone who can satisfy his freaky side, but also be treated with respect and like a queen. The chorus "Hey mama, hey mama, hey mama, hey ma'" is a repeated plea for that person to come closer and let him know that they're all his. He acknowledges that the feeling might be temporary but he's willing to take advantage of it for the time being. The song ends with Pitbull addressing his Latin fans and shouting out to Cuba.

Hey Ma (part. J Balvin y Pitbull)ft.
Camila Cabello

Dale, sin miedo
Arriésgate y sígueme el juego
Sola, creo
Di a tus amigas: Hasta luego
No des explicaciones, solo vente
Que tu mente es malvada, eso yo lo sé
En tu mirada yo lo puedo ver
Te mata mi estilo y eso yo lo sé

Vamo' a romper la disco, rampapampam
Baila que no te he visto, pampapampam
Porque tú eras lo que yo soñé
No perdamos el tiempo, pampapampam

I need you
Hey mama, hey mama, hey mama, hey ma'
I need you
Hey mama, hey mama, hey mama, hey ma'
Girl, it's getting hotter
I can't take much more
I need you
Hey mama, hey mama, hey mama, hey ma'
I need you

Pa'lante con la libertad de Cuba
Y que la isla entera suba
De la Habana hasta Santiago
Todo mundo fumando puros y tomando tragos
¡Qué relajo! El vago trabaja doble
So, ponte las pilas
Todo mundo quiere una Cubana, ponte en fila
Esto es un party, que siga, como sea
¿Cómo qué? Como tú quieras, a tu manera
Are you single?
Quítate las payamitas pa' que tú veas
No soy un mono vestido de seda
Esas mujeres están calientes y mucho más
Te queman por aquí, te queman por allá


No miraré atrás, oh, no, ya no
No puedo respirar sin tu amor
Baby, tu amor

I need you
Hey mama, hey mama, hey mama, hey ma'
I need you
Hey, mama hey mama, hey mama, hey ma'
Girl, it's getting hotter
I can't take much more
I need you
Hey mama, hey mama, hey mama, hey ma'
I need you

I need you
Hey

Si tocas mi piel
Tú saciarás mi sed
Oh, voy a enloquecer
Dime lo que vas a hacer
Dime lo que vas a hacer
No, no, no, no, no, no, no

I need you
Hey mama, hey mama, hey mama, hey ma'
I need you
Hey, mama, hey, mama, hey, mama, hey, ma'
Girl, it's getting hotter
I can't take much more
I need you
Hey mama, hey mama, hey mama, hey ma'
