La Fórmula

I got a formula, I know it won't fail
A little bit of everyone, and a little bit from beyond

I got a formula, I know it won't fail
A little bit of everyone, and a little bit from beyond
I got a formula, I know it won't fail
A little bit of everyone, and a little bit from beyond

Cuban salsa!
I got a formula, I know it won't fail
A little bit of everyone, and a little bit from beyond
I got a formula, I know it won't fail
A little bit of everyone, and a little bit from beyond

I went to Formell's house
straight to where the Van Van are
and he lent me the key
to start composing
Then I went to Adalberto's
to meet his son
and he gave me the melody
in the early morning
I got a formula, I know it won't fail
A little bit of everyone, and a little bit from beyond
I got a formula, I know it won't fail
A little bit of everyone, and a little bit from beyond

I also went to Manzanillo
to talk to Pachi Naranjo
I went to the central park
and found him there
he hugged me and brought
the original formula
whenever they call me, I'll go
whenever they call me, I'll go
A little while later
he appeared with Roberto
to lend a hand
and sing a chorus
and he started improvising
and even threw in his verse
who has seen around here, my yarei hat
who has seen around here, my yarei hat
I got a formula, I know it won't fail
A little bit of everyone, and a little bit from beyond
I got a formula, I know it won't fail
A little bit of everyone, and a little bit from beyond

since I was in the east
I went to Pedro the lame's house
to the Trova house
and also to Siboney
they took me to El Cobre
to see the little virgin
virgin of charity
what you don't know, no one knows
what you don't know, no one knows
I got a formula, I know it won't fail
A little bit of everyone, and a little bit from beyond
I got a formula, I know it won't fail
A little bit of everyone, and a little bit from beyond

When I came to Havana
and heard what I wanted
I met Menejé
and his beautiful melody
with the Charanga Habanera
and also with Manolín
with Chucho and Elías
as they used to say
Hey! Havana ohhh Havana
Ohhhh Havana ohhh Havana
Who doesn't dance, who doesn't enjoy in Havana, Havana
I got a formula, I know it won't fail
A little bit of everyone, and a little bit from beyond
I got a formula, I know it won't fail
A little bit of everyone, and a little bit from beyond

Oh mama, with the swag on point, for a while
that's not new, but I had my swag on point
hey, I had the feeling in my neighborhood
that's not new, but I had my swag on point
hey swag, on point
feeling that you gave me, that God has given me
that's not new, but I had my swag on point
that's not new, but I had my swag on point
that's not new, but I had my swag on point
Ask around Cayo Hueso, I had my swag on point
I was walking, I was dancing
that's not new, but I had my swag on point
Hey Swag, swag on point
that's not new, but I had my swag on point
