Mi Cuerpo Hace Musica
Written by Gil Raldiris
Lyrics:
Mi cuerpo, mi cuerpo hace musica (2x)
Mis manos hacen clap clap clap
Mis pies hacen stomp stomp stomp
Mi boca hace la la la
Cintura hace cha cha cha!
My body, my body makes music (2x)
My hands say clap clap clap
My feet say stomp stomp stomp
My mouth says la la la
My waist says cha cha cha!
Mi cuerpo, mi cuerpo hace musica (2x)
Mis manos hacen clap clap clap
Mis pies hacen stomp stomp stomp
Mi boca hace la la la
Cintura hace cha cha cha
Mis manos hacen clap clap clap
Mis pies hacen stomp stomp stomp
Mi boca hace la la la
Cintura hace cha cha cha
Mi cuerpo, mi cuerpo hace musica!
