That you're hot, hot, hot, hot, hot, hot
Hot, hot
That you're hot, hot, hot, hot, hot, hot
Hot, hot
A twenty out of ten
You're the dance machine
If you have nobody then come over
Perfume in the air
Argentina, you bring me the good airs
You're powerful, kind of scandalous
There'll be other women but you're something else
If that you're gorgeous were a crime
In bed I put the handcuffs on you
That you're hot, hot, hot, hot, hot, hot
Hot, hot
That you're hot, hot, hot, hot, hot, hot
Hot, hot
A twenty out of ten
When I saw her
I said if that woman were for me
Forgive me, sorry
I had to tell you that
When I saw her
I said if that woman were for me
Forgive me, sorry
I had to tell you that to you
She looks like a model
She's got swagger to spare
If she were a stripper bills would rain on her
Well, before the buzz hits me
Let's dance to see if you nail it
That you're hot, hot, hot, hot, hot, hot
Hot, hot
That you're hot, hot, hot, hot, hot, hot
Hot, hot
A twenty out of ten

SONG MEANING

“Dura (Cha Cha Cha)” is a playful love-letter to that one person on the dance floor who instantly steals all the attention. In Puerto Rican slang, dura means “gorgeous” or “hot,” and Los Rivera Destino repeats the word like an irresistible chant, rating the woman a “20 out of 10.” Over a retro cha-cha-cha groove, the singer showers her with rapid-fire compliments, calling her a “dance machine,” imagining cash raining down if she were a stripper, and even joking about putting “handcuffs” on her good looks if beauty were a crime.

Beneath the cheeky lines, the song is really an anthem of confidence and celebration. It invites the listener to join the dance, breathe in the “perfume in the air,” and admire someone who owns the room with flair and self-assurance. The flirty energy, clever wordplay (“Argentina me traes los Buenos Aires”), and vintage rhythm turn a simple pick-up line into a feel-good tribute to fun, flirting, and fearless self-expression.
