  • Everybody knows this right here
    Your mother, your father, yous sister, your brother

    Mami el negro, Cubano
    Mami el negro, Puertorriqueño
    Mami el negro, Dominicano
    Mami el negro, Mexicano

    Mami el negro esta rabioso
    El quiere tu azucar, y tu no se lo das
    Esa morena esta sabrosa
    Y cuando tu la tocas, ella se vuelve loca
    Mami el negro esta rabioso
    El quiere tu azucar, y tu no se lo das
    Esa morena esta sabrosa
    Y cuando tu la tocas, ella se vuelve loca
    Mami que sera lo que quiere el negro (a mi que me importa)
    Yo lo que quiero es esa loca (dale dale loca)
    Mami que sera lo que quiere el negro (a mi que me importa)
    Yo lo que quiero es esa loca (dale dale loca)

    Let's go
    Hey hey, baby give it to me, don't play-play
    She was like ok-k-k
    Started clapping her ass like ay bey bey, ay bey bey, ay bey bey
    She told me that her mom is Latin, her dad Asian
    Abuela esta loca, abuelos Hatian
    Y yo soy Cubano and I'm impatient
    So do me a favor, lets skip conversation
    I just wanna taste you ASAP
    Take you ASAP to the room ASAP
    Zoom zoom ASAP boom boom take that
    Oh, I like that
    When you fight that

    Mami el negro esta rabioso
    El quiere tu azucar, y tu no se lo das
    Esa morena esta sabrosa
    Y cuando tu la tocas, ella se vuelve loca
    Mami que sera lo que quiere el negro (a mi que me importa)
    Yo lo que quiero es esa loca (dale dale loca)
    Mami que sera lo que quiere el negro (a mi que me importa)
    Yo lo que quiero es esa loca (dale dale loca)

    See you with your heels, sexy ass shirt
    I see you with your man
    You threw me a smirk
    You see me with your girls
    You started to flirt
    Back of the club, hand up her skirt
    Hand full of ass
    I'm trying to hold on
    Girls gone wild all night long
    She had no bra and no thong
    One more shot
    Baby it's on
    She's a wild thing
    And she loves to do wild things
    So we did the wild thing
    I'm a freak but I ain't gon' lie
    That thing was fire man, everybody say

    Mami el negro esta rabioso
    El quiere tu azucar, y tu no se lo das
    Esa morena esta sabrosa
    Y cuando tu la tocas, ella se vuelve loca
    Mami que sera lo que quiere el negro (a mi que me importa)
    Yo lo que quiero es esa loca (dale dale loca)
    Mami que sera lo que quiere el negro (a mi que me importa)
    Yo lo que quiero es esa loca (dale dale loca)

    Get nasty, get freaky, you sexy, you fine
    Get nasty, get freaky, you sexy, you fine
    Go go go go girl
    Go go go girl
    Go go go girl
    Go go go girl
    Shake your ass to the beat, shake your ass to the beat
    Shake your ass to the beat, shake your ass to the beat

    Mami el negro esta rabioso
    El quiere tu azucar, y tu no se lo das
    Esa morena esta sabrosa
    Y cuando tu la tocas, ella se vuelve loca
    Mami que sera lo que quiere el negro (a mi que me importa)
    Yo lo que quiero es esa loca (dale dale loca)
    Mami que sera lo que quiere el negro (a mi que me importa)
    Yo lo que quiero es esa loca (dale dale loca)

    Ahora, dame lo mio
    Yo te doy lo tuyo
    Ahora, dame lo mio
    Yo te doy lo tuyo
    Ahora, dame lo mio (let's go now)
    Yo te doy lo tuyo
    Ahora, dame lo mio
