Listen to my rhythm I gotta go
Listen to my rhythm I gotta go
go, go with my baby
go, go with my baby
Listen to my rhythm
Listen to my rhythm
I gotta go, go go with my baby
I gotta go, go go with my baby
Oye como va
Hey, how is it going
Mi ritmo bueno pa' goza
My good rhythm to enjoy
Oye como va
Hey, how is it going
Mi ritmo bueno pa' goza
My good rhythm to enjoy
Si tu no sabes bailar
If you don't know how to dance
Si estas pelea'o con el son
If you are fighting with him
Sigueme marcando el paso
follow me marking the step
Y te aseguro que es de lo mas sabroson
And I assure you that it is the tastiest
Voy pa' la rumba, la rumba, la rumba
I'm going to the rumba, the rumba, the rumba
Porque me llama. Me llama. Me llam
Because she calls me. Calls me. Called me
Y necesito que suene el coro
And I need the chorus to play
Para que se ponga a vacilar
So that you start to hesitate
Y te lo digo
And I tell you
Oye como va
Hey, how is it going
Mi ritmo bueno pa' goza'
My good rhythm to enjoy'
Oye como va
Hey, how is it going
Mi ritmo bueno pa' goza'
My good rhythm to enjoy'
Es se pone caliente
it gets hot
esto se baila apretao
this is danced tight
cuatro pasitos pal' frente
four little steps in front
y un meneadito de la'o
and a wiggle of la'o
Porque la rumba, la rumba la rumba
Because the rumba, the rumba, the rumba
Tiene la clave, la clave, la clave
He has the key, the key, the key
Y hay que meterle candela al jarro
And you have to put a candle in the jug
Para que suene así como va
To make it sound like it goes
Oye como va
Hey, how is it going
Mi ritmo bueno pa' goza'
My good rhythm to enjoy'
Oye como va
Hey, how is it going
Mi ritmo bueno pa' goza'
My good rhythm to enjoy'
Oye como va
Hey, how is it going
Ay, camina como chencha o no va a echar
Oh, walk like a chencha or you won't miss
Oye como va
Hey, how is it going
Oye como va, oye como va
Hey how it goes, hey how it goes
Quimbara Quimbara quimba quimbara quimbara
Quimbara Quimbara Quimbara Quimbara Quimbara
Quimba quimbara quimbara quimba quimbamba
Quimba quimbara quimbara quimba quimbamba
Oye como va
Hey, how is it going
Y llega el negro Vicente
And the black Vicente arrives
Y el bodeguero de al la'o
And the winery next door
Que venga toda mi gente
Let all my people come
Para que gocen tumba'o
So that they enjoy tumba'o
Porque la rumba, la rumba, la rumba
Because the rumba, the rumba, the rumba
Tiene la clave, la clave, la clave
He has the key, the key, the key
Y hay que meterle candela al jarro
And you have to put a candle in the jug
Para que suene así como va
To make it sound like it goes
Oye como va
Hey, how is it going
Mi ritmo bueno pa' goza'
My good rhythm to enjoy'
Oye como va
Hey, how is it going
Mi ritmo bueno pa' goza'
My good rhythm to enjoy'
