La Negra Tiene Tumbao

That little black girl walking down the street
That little black girl has her swagger
And when people look at her
She dances to the side, walks tightly
Tightly, tightly

(The black woman has swagger)
Sugar, sugar
(And doesn't walk to the side)

If you want to go straight
It's better to walk forward
So there are no stumbles
And you come and regret

If you want to arrive first
It's better to run slowly
Enjoy life well (darling)
Even while taking precautions (sugar)

(The black woman has swagger)
She has swagger, she has swagger
(And doesn't walk to the side)
And doesn't walk to the side, and doesn't walk to the side

(The black woman has swagger)
Oh, swagger
(She never walks to the side)
She never walks to the side, to the side

(She has me swaggering, she has me swaggering)
(Walk straight, don't walk to the side)
(She has me swaggering, she has me swaggering)

When people die (oh my God)
They say she was so good (so good)
So good when she was alive
Like night and day (do you think?)

Let them come and tell me the truth
I can't stand any more lies (always the same)
I enjoy life well
Even while taking precautions (sugar)

(The black woman has swagger)
She has swagger, she has swagger
(And doesn't walk to the side)
And doesn't walk to the side, and doesn't walk to the side

(The black woman has swagger)
Oh, swagger
(She never walks to the side)
She never walks to the side, to the side

(Walk straight)
(Walk straight, don't walk to the side)
(The black woman has swagger)

She has me swaggering
Walk straight, don't walk to the side
Goddess of the night, sweet as honey
Another like her, I have never found
Come here, so we can share

Because you are the beautiful black woman who makes me happy
I don't want another (you are the one who inspires me)
Without you, I die (I need you, come to my heart)
I don't want another (if you're not here, I feel desperation)
Without you, I die (loving you will always be my vocation)

She has me swaggering
Walk straight, don't walk to the side
Goddess of the night, sweet as honey
Another like her, I have never found

That little black girl has swagger
Everyone follows her for her walk
That little black girl has swagger
Everyone follows her for her walk

(The black woman has swagger)
She has swagger, she has swagger
(And doesn't walk to the side)
And doesn't walk to the side, and doesn't walk to the side

(The black woman has swagger)
(And doesn't walk to the side)

That little black girl walking down the street
That little black girl has her swagger
And when people look at her
She dances to the side, walks tightly
Tightly, tightly (sugar)

(The black woman has swagger)
She has me swaggering, she has me swaggering
(And doesn't walk to the side)
She has me swaggering, she has me swaggering

Oh, swagger (oh, swagger)
She never walks to the side, to the side

(The black woman has swagger)
She has me swaggering, she has me swaggering
(And doesn't walk to the side)
She never walks to the side, to the side

(The black woman has swagger)
She has me swaggering, she has me swaggering
(And doesn't walk to the side)
She never walks to the side, to the side
