Pata Pata Lyrics

Sometimes I sit down and wonder, what?
What the people really want?
They need a new sound,
A new dimension, (yeah)
The latin flavor, (yeah)
Come on mami&
Come on mami&
Come on mami&
Come on mami&
Chorus
Sacutunda sachipega, dancing pata pata
Sacutunda sachipega, dancing pata pata
Sacutunda sachipega, dancing pata pata
Sacutunda sachipega&dancing
Pata pata was the sound that made the people stand,
That's why I come to bring it to my generation:
Make some stand,
Make some dance,
And some of them slam.
Yes& the pata pata come to run the nation.
(Bridge repeat twice)
Mama ehh ahh mama ehh ahh ma&
Mama ehh ahh mama ehh ahh ma&
I want you to jump
I want you to jump
I want you to jump and dance
Chorus
I don't think their's anybody who doesn't love to pata
Pata
I want you to bend your back and then I bend my knees.
We do the pata pata we just rock it steady
We glue on together like the bee's to honey.
(Bridge repeat twice)
Mama ehh ahh mama ehh ahh ma
Mama ehh ahh mama ehh ahh ma
I want you to jump
I want you to jump
I want you to jump and dance.
Pata pata is the sound that makes the people jum around.
Hey&! Come on everybody,
Let's get down with the pata pata, pata pata, baby&!
You got an invitation to my party
Specially all the girls that are hot and sexy
To make some of them spin
Make some of them grin with my style
This is El General for all ladies.
Mama ehh ahh mama ehh ahh ma

Love me like a chulo mami.

Chorus ( and together with final)
Pata pata pata pata pata pata pata pata pata pata pata boom boom

Baby baby
Tell me if you love, tell me if you love me.
Hmmmmm, hmmmm, hmmmm
