lyrics

Bum, bum, bum
Bum, bum, vaaaa!

Esta cumbia tropical
Con su parpadear de velas
Estando sentimental
Suave vaivén de caderas

Bum, bum, bum
Bum, bum, vaaaa!

Las hembras se ven pasar
Ondulando su cintura
Como sirenas del mar
Con exótica hermosura

Bum, bum, bum
Bum, bum, vaaaa!

Todos queremos bailar
Al embrujo del tambor
Este ritmo tropical
Orgullo de mi nación

Bum, bum, bum
Bum, bum, vaaaa!

Baila mi cumbia
(Baila mi cumbia)
Baila mi cumbia
(Baila mi cumbia)

Que esta sabrosa
(Baila mi cumbia)
Baila mi cumbia
(Baila mi cumbia)
Baila mi cumbia
(Baila mi cumbia)

(Baila mi cumbia)
(Baila mi cumbia)
(Baila mi cumbia)
(Baila mi cumbia)
