Canalla Lyrics in English Romeo Santos , El Chaval De La Bachata

🎸 “Canalla” is a fiery bachata confession about falling head-over-heels for a femme fatale. Romeo Santos and El Chaval De La Bachata paint the picture of a man who knows his lover is "mala" (bad) yet cannot break free from her spell. He admits she turns his world on and off, lifts him to the sky, then throws him back down, but the thrill is so addictive that he willingly endures the emotional roller-coaster.

Despite the heartbreak, he calls her "canalla" (rascal) with a mix of frustration and admiration. The lyrics show a tug-of-war between pain and pleasure: “Este masoquismo es rentable / Aunque me afecta la salud” reveals that although the relationship hurts, the passion feels worth it. In the end, the song celebrates the intoxicating pull of love’s darker side, all wrapped in rhythm-driven guitars and the smooth, flirtatious style that makes Romeo Santos the “King of Bachata.”
