Am                                                      Dm

     I never really knew that she could dance like this,

G                                               Em

    she makes a man wants to speak Spanish,

F                           - G            - Am

    como se llama,       bonita,          mi casa, su casa.

Am                               Dm               - G                     Em

    Oh baby, when you talk like that,       you make a woman go mad,

F                     - G                      - Am

    so be wise       and keep on            reading the signs of my body.

 

Am            Dm                                   G               

    And I'm on tonight, you know my hips don't lie,

                  Em

    and I'm starting to feel it's right.

F                              - G      

    All the attraction,       the tension,

Am

    don't you see, baby, this is perfection.

2.     Hey Girl, I can see your body moving, and it's driving me crazy,

Am         G                                   Am             G

    and I didn't have the slightest idea until I saw you dancing.

Am                                                G           

    And when you walk up on the dance floor,

                       Am                   G

    nobody cannot ignore the way you move your body, girl.

Am                                     G                                             Am             

    And everything so unexpected - the way you right and left it,

           G              

    so you can keep on taking it.

    I don't, don't really know what I'm doing, but you seem to have a plan.

Am                   G                - Am                         G

    My will and self restraint          have come to fail now, fail now,

Am                                    G                                   Am                

    see, I am doing what I can, but I can't, so you know,

                             G             

    that's a bit too hard to explain.
