Pégame tu vicio literally translates to "Stick your vice to me," but is better understood as "Give me your vice" or "Infect me with your addiction." The verb pegar can mean "to hit," but here it implies transmitting something contagious, like a habit or a feeling.
In this passionate bachata, the singer describes a love so intense it feels like a vicio (a vice or addiction). Instead of resisting this "dangerous" love that everyone warns him about, he begs his partner to pass on her irresistible vice to him, showing his complete and willing surrender.
“Pégame Tu Vicio” is Anthony Santos’s playful, bachata-infused love letter to temptation. The singer admits that everyone calls this romance a dangerous addiction, even a poison that could “kill like cancer,” yet he just cannot resist another taste of his lover’s lips. With each line he doubles down on the thrill, begging her to “infect” him with the very vice that others fear. The song turns passion into a deliciously illicit habit, making every kiss feel like the next hit he cannot live without.
Beneath the seductive hook lies a message of fearless devotion. Gossip, envy and moral warnings are brushed aside; what matters is the couple’s plan to escape together, forget the world, and indulge in love on their own terms. By the final chorus, Santos celebrates the idea that life is short and rumors are plenty, so why not surrender to the sweet risk of desire? In short, if love is a vice, he wants an overdose!
