Cuando estás bien, te alejas de mí

When you're fine, you stay away from me

Te sientes sola, y siempre estoy ahí

You feel alone, and I'm always there

Es una guerra de "toma y dame"

It's a war of give and take

Pues dame de eso que tiene' ahí

Well, give me what you have there

Oye, baby, no seas mala (on, no)

Hey, baby, don't be mean (on, no)

No me dejes con las ganas

Don't leave me wanting

Se escucha en la calle que ya no me quieres

It is heard in the street that you don't love me anymore

Ven y dímelo en la cara

Come and tell me to my face

Pregúntale a quien tú quieras

Ask whoever you want

Vida, te juro que eso no es así

Life, I swear that's not like that

Yo nunca tuve una mala intención

I never had a bad intention

Yo nunca quise burlarme de ti

I never wanted to make fun of you

Conmigo ves, nunca se sabe

With me you see, you never know

Un día digo que no y otro que sí

One day I say no and another day I say yes

Yo soy masoquista

I am a masochist

Con mi cuerpo un egoísta

With my body an egoist

Tú eres puro, puro chantaje

You are pure, pure blackmail

Puro, puro chantaje

Pure, pure blackmail

Siempre es a tu manera

It's always your way

Yo te quiero aunque no quiera

You are pure, pure blackmail

Puro, puro chantaje

Pure, pure blackmail

Vas libre como el aire

You go free as air

No soy de ti ni de nadie

I am not yours or anyone's

Cómo tú me tientas cuando tú te mueves

How you tempt me when you move

Esos movimientos sexy siempre me entretienen

Those sexy moves always entertain me

Sabe' manipularme bien con tu cadera

You know how to manipulate me well with your hips

No sé por qué me tienes en lista de espera

I don't know why you have me on the waiting list.

Te dicen por ahí que voy haciendo y deshaciendo

They tell you what I'm doing and undoing

Que salgo cada noche, que te tengo ahí sufriendo

That I go out every night, that I have you there suffering

Que en esta relación soy yo la que manda

That in this relationship I am the one in charge

No pares bola' a toda esa mala propaganda

Don't stop all that bad propaganda

Pa'-pa' qué te digo na', te comen el oído

Pa'-pa' what can I say to you, they eat your ears

No vaya' a enderezar lo que no se ha torcido

Don't go 'straightening what hasn't been twisted

Y como un loco sigo tras de ti, muriendo por ti

And like a madman I continue after you, dying for you

Dime, ¿qué hay pa' mí, bebé? (¿Qué?)

Tell me, what's in it for me, baby? (That?)

Pregúntale a quien tú quieras

Ask whoever you want

Vida, te juro que eso no es así
