Below, I translated the lyrics of the song La Receta by Tego Calderón from Spanish to English.

Verse 1

Hazlo como lo hago yo, yo sé que tú no puedes, no

Do it like I do it, I know you can't, no

Mucha letra, mucha clave, mucho demasiado de flow

Too much lyrics, too much style, too much flow

Los pollitos dicen 'pio, pio' y yo me río

The chicks say 'peep, peep' and I laugh

Esto se baila como si te fuera a hacer un hijo

This is danced as if you were going to make a baby

Pero no te pongas tensa, que entonces pierde la gracia

But don't get tense, or it loses its grace

Esto hay que sentirlo, chica, esto es fuego a la lata

This has to be felt, girl, this is fire in the can

Si estás perdía', sígueme, yo soy tu mapa

If you're lost, follow me, I'm your map

Haz lo que tenga' que hacer, si no te moja', te empapa'

Do whatever you have to do, if it doesn't get you wet, it drenches you

Prechorus 1

Baila con actitud, que sufran to' los que nos miran

Dance with attitude, let everyone who watches us suffer

Hablando claro, claro, nos fuimos demasiado po' encima

Speaking clearly, clearly, we went too far

A mí no me importa nadie, solo tú y yo

I don't care about anyone else, only you and me

Aquí no hace falta nada, mamita, yo traje de to'

We don't need anything here, honey, I brought everything

Te quiero a ti, mami, nada más

I want you, mommy, nothing more

Yo ni miro pa'l lado, niña

I don't even look aside, girl

You are the prescription my doctor gave me

Estoy tan activado que ni yo mismo me soporto

I'm so hyped that I can't even stand myself

Te quiero a ti, mami, nada más

I want you, mommy, nothing more

Verse 2

Soy un caballo sin jinete repartiendo fuete

I'm a horse without a rider, dealing out lashes

Galopeando por la vida en busca de una que se trepe en la silla

Gallop through life in search of one who will climb up in the saddle

Ya tú encontraste esta que estilla

You found this one that stands out

Dobla, mija que tú no come' varilla

Fold, girl, you don't eat iron bars

Soy adobo para los pollo', criollo

I'm seasoning for the chickens, creole

Mientras este vivo soy un yoyo, lo tiro, lo escojo

As long as I'm alive I'm a yo-yo, I throw it, I pick it up

Hago lo que me salga Del forro, nunca he pedío' socorro

I do what comes out of my mind, I've never asked for help

Si León me pide mucho, pero yo me hago el sordo

If León asks me a lot, but I pretend I'm deaf

Serio con los tipo', con las gatas yo me mondo

Serious with the guys, with the girls, I go wild

Tego Calde, gordo, el que te lo entierra De mongo

Tego Calde, fat, the one who buries you from mongo

Es para las yales, perdona, me fui en un viaje

This is for the girls, sorry, I went on a trip

Torre De control, dame la verde pa'l aterrizaje

Control tower, give me the green light for landing

Chorus 2

Te quiero a ti, mami, nada más

I want you, mommy, nothing more

Yo ni miro pa'l lado, niña

I don't even look aside, girl

Te quiero a ti, mami, nada más

I want you, mommy, nothing more

Yo ni miro pa'l lado, niña

I don't even look aside, girl

Es que tú eres la receta que me dio mi doctor

It's just that you are the prescription my doctor gave me, bae

Estoy tan activado que ni yo mismo me soporto, bae

I'm so turned on I can't stand it, bae
