Listen how it goes, my rhythm

Listen how it goes, my rhythm
is good for enjoyment, mulata.
If you can't dance,
if you are on the outs with music,
just follow my dancing,
I know you're going to enjoy this rhythm.
We're playing rumba, rumba, rumba,
because it calls me, it calls me, it calls me,
and I need the chorus to sound,
so we can have fun.
So I tell you:
Listen how it goes, my rhythm
is good for enjoyment, mulata.
Listen how it goes, my rhythm
is good for enjoyment, mulata.
This is getting hot!
You have to dance it tightly,
four little steps to the front,
and then swing to the side.
Because the rumba, rumba, rumba
has the key, the key, the key,
you have to put fire on it,
so it can sound like this.
I'll repeat it for you:
Listen how it goes, my rhythm
is good for enjoyment, mulata.
Listen how it goes, my rhythm
is good for enjoyment, mulata.
Listen how it goes, listen how it goes...
There he comes, is Vicente,
and the grocer from next door,
Let all my people come here,
so they can enjoy the swing.
Because the rumba, rumba, rumba
has the key, the key, the key,
you have to put fire on it,
so it can sound like this.
Really smoothly.
Listen how it goes, my rhythm
is good for enjoyment, mulata.
Listen how it goes, my rhythm
is good for enjoyment, mulata.
