Lyrics of Hips Don't Lie by Shakira

intro

Ladies up in here tonight
No fighting (We got the refugees up in here)
No fighting
No fighting
Shakira, Shakira

verse

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

verse

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)

chorus

I'm on tonight, you know my hips don't lie
And I'm starting to feel it's right
All the attraction, the tension
Don't you see, baby? This is perfection

verse

Hey, girl, I can see your body moving
And it's driving me crazy
And I didn't have the slightest idea
Until I saw you dancing
The way you walk up on the dance floor
Nobody cannot ignore the way you move your body, girl
And everything's so unexpected
The way you right and left it
So you can keep on shaking it (Let's go)

chorus

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

verse

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

chorus

I'm on tonight, you know my hips don't lie
And I'm starting to feel you, boy
Come on, let's go, real slow
Don't you see, baby? Así es perfecto

chorus

Baby, I know I'm on tonight, my hips don't lie
And I'm starting to feel it's right
All the attraction, the tension
Don't you see, baby? This is perfection (Shakira, Shakira)

verse

Oh, boy, I can see your body moving
Half animal, half man
I don't, don't really know what I'm doing
But you seem to have a plan
My will and self-restraint
Have come to fail now, fail now
See, I'm doing what I can, but I can't, so you know
That's a bit too hard to explain (Uno, dos, tres, cuatro)

verse

Baila en la calle de noche
Baila en la calle de día
Baila en la calle de noche
Baila en la calle de día

chorus

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

chorus

Oh, baby, when you talk like that
You know you got me hypnotized
So be wise (Sí) and keep on (Sí)
Reading the signs of my body

verse

Señorita, feel the conga
Let me see you move like you come from Colombia
Yeah, oh, yeah, ladies sing (Hey, yeah)
Mira, en Barranquilla se baila así, say it!
En Barranquilla se baila así

verse

Yeah, she's so sexy, every man's fantasy
A refugee like me back with the Fugees from a third world country
I go back like when Pac carried crates for Humpty Humpty
We need a whole club dizzy

verse

Why the CIA wanna watch us?
Colombians and Haitians
I ain't guilty, it's a musical transaction
Boo-boop-so-boop, no more do we snatch ropes
Refugees run the seas 'cause we own our own boats

chorus

I'm on tonight, my hips don't lie
And I'm starting to feel you, boy
Come on, let's go, real slow
Baby, like this is perfecto (No fighting)

chorus

Oh, you know I'm on tonight, my hips don't lie
And I'm starting to feel it's right
The attraction, the tension
Baby, like this is perfection

outro

No fighting
No fighting
Writer(s): Omar Alfanno, Wyclef Jean, Shakira Mebarak, Jerry Duplessis, Latavia Parker, Luis Diaz
