What is your name, baby?

Since I saw you I knew that you were for me

Tell your friends that we're ready

This we'll continue at the after party

What is your name, baby?

Since I saw you I knew that you were for me

Tell your friends that we're ready

This we'll continue at the after party

Chorus 1

Calmly, I want to see how she dances

Move that poom-poom, girl

She's a killer, when she dances she wants all the world to see her

Calmly, I want to see how she dances

Move that poom-poom, girl

She has adrenaline, in the middle of the dance-floor, come do whatever

Verse 2

I saw that you're alone, accompany me

The night is ours, you know it

What desire you give-give-give me

Of grinding you babe that ram-pam-pam

That criminal, how she moves it is a crime

I have to arrest you because I start and I don't stop

You have criminality, but I give you fatality

Live the movie floating in my gravity

Daddy sets the rules, you have to obey

Babe, there's no pause, what are you going to do?

Move it, move it, move it back

Move it, move it, forward and backwards

Chorus 2

Calmly, I want to see how she dances

Move that poom-poom, girl

She's a killer, when she dances she wants all the world to see her

Calmly, I want to see how she dances

Move that poom-poom, girl

She has adrenaline, in the middle of the dance-floor, come do whatever

Verse 3

You have fire and I have the candle

Call 911, the soles are burning

It turns me on when that skirt models for me

Baby, you're sick, but your show you don't cancel

They call you the queen of the party

That body has so much flow

Take a step, don't stop

Wow go ahead go ahead

We are two bandits between rumba and romance

And DJ play it again so she can dance

Move it, move it, move it back

Move it, move it, forward and backwards

Chorus 3

Calmly, I want to see how she dances

Move that poom-poom, girl

She's a killer, when she dances she wants all the world to see her

Calmly, I want to see how she dances

Move that poom-poom, girl

She has adrenaline, in the middle of the dance-floor, come do whatever

Come with a nice young lady

Intelligent, yes she gentle and irie

Everywhere me go me never left her at all-ie

Yes-a Daddy Snow me are the roam dance man-a

Roam between-a dancing in-a in-a nation-a

You never know say daddy me Snow me are the boom shakata

Me never lay-a down flat in-a one cardboard box-a

Yes-a Daddy Yankee me-a go reaching out da top

Con calma, yo quiero ver como ella lo menea, mueve ese poom-poom, girl

Es un asesina, cuando baila quiere que to' el mundo la vea

Con calma, ya' no say daddy me Snow me I go blame

Tective-man a say, say daddy me Snow me stop a girl down the lane
