Todas las chicas vienen tras de mi

Porque tengo el funkete que traigo aquí
Because I've got the funk that I bring here
Soy alto, flaco, también sexy
I'm tall, skinny, also sexy
Es lo que me dicen las chicas a mi
That's what the girls say to me
Dámelo papi, dámelo papi
Give it to me, daddy, give it to me, daddy
Yo como un dando le digo que si
I eat it up, saying yes
Cógelo mami, cógelo mami
Take it, mommy, take it, mommy
Para que tu nunca puedas decir
So you can never say
Que me pediste funkete y no te lo di
That you asked me for funk and I didn't give it to you
Mami llego tu papi con el funkete, sacúdelo
Mommy, your daddy has arrived with the funk, shake it
Pero que mami llego tu papi con el funkete, menéalo

Baila baila, mueve tu cuerpo

Dance, dance, shake that thing
Da una vuelta con tu cintura
Turn your waist around
Hazlo mami con sabrosura
Do it, baby, with flair
Suda, suda que hace calor
Sweat, sweat, it's getting hot
Quien es quien te lo hace mejor
Who’s the one that does it better for you
Quien es quien te da más sabor
Who’s the one that gives you more flavor
Quien es quien te da la inyección
Who is it that gives you the injection
