She doesn't have a messed-up mind
Because for her it's normal
She already wants to show it to me, if it happens I'll give it to her
It's 2 in the morning, she doesn't just want to grind
The club's lit to spend some time
He's looking for me and I don't run away
Pull up, babe, and we'll do it nasty
The kitty came out, guard your cats
Because she's lit to spend some time
She's kinda naughty and crazy for the thug
Tell me, babe, and we'll do it nasty
Tell your kitty that her cat's here
The kitty's looking for a C-A-T
That'll step up for her in some freakiness
Love made me an atheist
But if you do it, babe, I'll believe again
I made her sing a capella
She was soaking wet, Guatapé
She had a couple holes and I plugged them
She said, 'Let's go hard', and I slipped away with her
I moved her panty aside, she pulled down my Calvin
She stripped off everything except the Balvins
I tasted that p*ssy, sweet, she lit a Bob Marley
We went to the party again
I moved her panty aside, she pulled down my Calvin
She stripped off everything except the Balvins
I tasted that p*ssy, sweet, she lit a Bob Marley
We went to the party again
The club's lit to spend some time
He's looking for me and I don't run away
Pull up, babe, and we'll do it nasty
The kitty came out, guard your cats
Because she's lit to spend some time
She's kinda naughty and crazy for the thug
Tell me, babe, and we'll do it nasty
Tell your kitty that her cat's here
I saw him handsome, cute, hot, he came close and told me
'You got something that gets me going'
You're a crime, look, boy, I noticed real quick
You've got an evil face
Tell me what's up
One like me you only cross paths with once
That in bed we'd understand each other, I thought so
If we do it, your stress goes away
If I move it, you like what you see
Let's see, I watch how you dance pressed up
You're hard to get, babe, props to you
But tonight don't call me 'little brother'
Because you've got plenty of meat and that whets my appetite
She knows the route to the club
Bottles come to her, she won't drink them
Everybody wants her and the women like her
She might be on fire and all, but she makes herself respected
We do it nasty, nasty
With the Bad Gyal
With the Bad Gyal

SONG MEANING

“Gato” drops listeners straight into a sizzling late-night club scene where the beats pulse, the lights flash, and everyone is ready to perrear (dance close). J Balvin and Bad Gyal trade flirtatious lines while playing with the Spanish slang gata (a bold, party-loving woman) and gato (the daring guy who matches her energy). It’s 2 a.m., the dance floor is electric, and both artists boast about their confidence, magnetism, and zero hesitation to turn chemistry into action. The lyrics splash vivid images of designer clothes tossed aside, whispered invitations, and reggae smoke swirling through the air, creating a soundtrack for unapologetic nightlife.

Beneath the steamy surface, the song celebrates sexual agency and mutual consent. The gata owns her desires, setting her own rules, while the gato respects her vibe and rises to meet it. Together they champion living in the moment, shrugging off labels, and embracing pleasure without attachments. “Gato” is a playful, no-strings-attached anthem that reminds listeners to dance hard, flirt freely, and enjoy the thrill of shared attraction when the night is young and the reggaeton rhythm is loud.
