Where I'm from, the good die young
Any men I know they ain't see the sun
Sitting back, reminisce
The carnival that's where I got my first kiss
You bought your mask
I bought my suit
We dem Bishop boys
I got the juice
I'm with them Haiti kids
With them them Jamaican horns
Some man na drinking it's not a place done

La latina se reporta
Luciendo su falda corta
De carnaval musica te transporta
La union de mi gente lo demás no importa
La Colombia en la casa, este party te exhorta
De todo lo malo no hay que llorar
Así que a gozar, lo dejo, mi aval
Mira como es caldo
No me señales que no te señalo
Deja que el ritmo te invada pa' todos los dolores
Te pongo la pomada
Si los niños lo bailan no me digas nada
Gozate este carnaval

Hey gyal
Fling it up
Take a wine on the speaker box
If it's love that you need I will proceed to be in the sweetest fuck
Carnival
Bacchanal
We trippin' behind the big truck
Them gyal shaking it to the bongo drums
Somebody give me too much rum

I'm with the Trini boys
With them Jamaican
Someone na play a tune and not a basedrum
