Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I was listening to a radio station last night
A shrink, Doctor Luis, was giving counsel on the line
Hey doc, I'm calling about a latin girl I met in the web site
Hey doc, I'm calling about a latin girl I met on the website
She tastes to me like a honeycomb
Y tiene la llave de mi corazón
And she holds the key to my heart
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm from Louisiana, she's from San Pedro de Macoris
You know the land of baseball players
Where Sammy Sosa lives
She likes to drink papaya juice and paint caribbean trees
Oh, we don't have too much in common
But love is blind as you can see
She tastes to me like a honeycomb
Sweet to my heart, medicine for my soul
Girl I want to feel your heart
And hope you love me too
You know I can't stop loving you, babe
I said mambo
Love me, yeah
Love me, yeah
Establish your emotions
Reveal your feelings
Make a point, you're on the air
Make it clear, you're live on air
Should I go and visit (her)
Should I learn spanish (words)
Should I cry, should I face
Should I cry, should I confront
Some political concerns
Some political issues
Should I join a social (club)
Should I peel a (coconut)
Movin' in, movin' on
Merengue bachata y son, now
Merengue, bachata, and son, now
She tastes to me like a honeycomb
Y tiene la llave de mi corazón
And she holds the key to my heart
Dance!
Dance!
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Dance!
Should I get down on my (knees)
Should I dance a latin (beat)
Should I laugh should I get
A romantic membership
Should I play my conga (drums)
Should I sing La Vie en (Rose)
Moving in, moving on
Merengue, bachata y son, now
Merengue, bachata and son, now
She tastes to me like a honeycomb
Y tiene la llave de mi corazón
And she has the key to my heart
Girl I want to feel your heart
And hope you love me too
You know I can't stop loving you, babe
She tastes to me like a honeycomb
Y tiene la llave de mi corazón
And she holds the key to my heart
(You're so sweet, to me, yeah)
(You're so sweet)
(You're so sweet, to me, baby)
(You're so sweet, to me, baby)
(You're so sweet)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
She tastes to me like a honeycomb
Y tiene la llave de mi corazón
And she holds the key to my heart
(Sweet to my heart)
Ehh baby now
Eh-eh baby now
(Sweet to my heart)
(Sweet to my heart)
(Sweet to my heart)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Sweet to my heart)
Yeah, baby
She tastes to me like a honeycomb
Tu tienes la llave de mi corazón.
You have the key to my heart.
