Have a party
Shake your body
Do the limbo
Dancin' a la Bimbo
Do it all night
See the sunlight
We go on and on and on

We gonna have a party
It's time to shake your body
Come on and do the limbo
Dancin' a la Bimbo
We can do it all night
'til we see the sunlight
We go on and on and on

(lala lala lala)
Carnaval!

Ayayayayai!

El Ritmo Tropical

El Mundo, El Cielo,
celebra Carnaval!
