Song Lyrics

Bamboo (bamboo)
Bem ba lali laluway (bem ba lali laluway)
Ah luway lo luway lo (ah luway lo luway lo)
Ley la ley lam la la lo (ley la ley lam la la lo)

Bamboo (bamboo)
Bem ba lali laluway (bem ba lali laluway)
Ah luway lo luway lo (ah luway lo luway lo)
Ley la ley lam la la lo (ley la ley lam la la lo)

The attraction, attention

I never really knew that she could dance like this
She make a man want to speak Spanish
¿Cómo se llama? (Sí), bonita (sí)
Mi casa, su casa (Shakira, Shakira)

Oh, baby, when you talk like that
You make a woman go mad
So be wise (sí) and keep on (sí)
Reading the signs of my body (uno, dos, tres, cuatro)

I'm on tonight
You know my hips don't lie
And I'm starting to feel it's right
Ay ay ay do the bamboo
La Gloria te está esperando

Latino
Africano
Asiático, americano
Tu dios te está mirando

Bamboo (Bamboo)
Bem ba lali laluway (bem ba lali laluway)
Ah luway lo luway lo (ah luway lo luway lo)
Ley la ley lam la la lo (ley la ley lam la la lo)

No fighting tonight!

I never really knew that she could dance like this
She make a man want to speak Spanish
¿Cómo se llama? (Sí), bonita (sí)
Mi casa, su casa (Shakira, Shakira)

Oh baby when you talk like that
You make a woman go mad
So be wise (sí) and keep on (sí)
Reading the signs of my body (no fighting)

I'm on tonight
You know my hips don't lie (no fighting)
And I'm starting to feel ya boy
Ay ay ay do the bamboo
La Gloria te está esperando

They know I'm on tonight
My hips don't lie and I'm starting to feel it's right
Come on let's go, let's go
Tu dios te está mirando

Baila en la calle de noche
Baila en la calle de día (let's go)
Baila en la calle de noche
Juega en la calle de día (people in the front, don't fight tonight)

People inside, don't fight tonight
People in the back, don't fight tonight
Don't fight tonight! Don't fight tonight! (Woo)
Let's go!

I'm a student of Pele, call me Pele player
Eleven on the field with the heart of a gladiator
One goal, two goal, three goal, four!
I'ma play 'til my knees grow low
One goal, two goal, three goal, four!
Everybody in the final state go
And my football jersey says Maradona
The crowd chant sounds like spirits from Africa

Bamboo (bamboo)
Come on
Bem ba lali laluway
(Bem ba lali laluway)
Ah luway lo luway lo
(Ah luway lo luway lo)
Ley la ley lam la la lo
(Ley la ley lam la la lo)

Bamboo (bamboo)
Bem ba lali laluway (bem ba lali laluway)
Ah luway lo luway lo (ah luway lo luway lo)
Ley la ley lam la la lo (ley la ley lam la la lo)
