LYRICS WITH ENGLISH TRANSLATION:

I don’t want compassion, I don’t want pity
I want a hard love that can make me vibrate
I want your flavour, I want your sweat
I want you madness to make me go delirious
pure (sugar)cane... pure love...
Mexican-style love, with cumbia, huapango and son (sorts of music)
horse, boot and sombrero, tequila, tobacco and rum,
Mexican-style love, hot and to the Sun’s rhythm
slowly and then he kills me, my macho at heart
Mexican-style love...
Mexican-style love...
Mexican-style love...
Mexican-style love...
I want it smooth, I want it very rough
I want it to touch the bottom of my heart
I want it slow, I always want more
I want it to scare me till I lose my mind
pure (sugar)cane... pure love...
Mexican-style love...
Oh, I want your love at the bottom of my heart
Mexican-style love...
and within your madness I want to lose my mind
Mexican-style love...
I want it smooth, slow
Mexican-love style
I’m dying of love and frenzy
