The Thug and the Princess

El Malandro Y La Princesa

I was the thugYo era el malandro
She was the princessElla, la princesa
So differentTan diferente'
But life throws you surprisesPero la vida te da sorpresas

Life throws you surprisesLa vida te da sorpresas
Just like Rubén saysComo lo dice Rubén
She was rich and felt sadnessElla era rica y sentía tristeza
I was poor but feeling goodYo, pobre y sintiéndome bien

That's how we met, that's how we lovedAsí no' conocimo', así nos quisimo'
And I came from the bottomY yo salí de abajo
I pushed forward and to support herEché pa'lante y pa' mantenerla
I took on two jobsBusqué dos trabajo'

To, to, to love her like she deservesPa', pa', pa' quererla como ella se merece
So that when she opens her eyes, she kisses mePa' que, cuando abra los ojo', a mí me bese
What others say doesn't matter to herLo que digan lo' dema' no le interesa
She fell for this thug and I fell for the princessSe enamoró de este malandro y yo de la princesa
She fell for this thug and I fell for the princessSe enamoró de este malandro y yo de la princesa

It's just that I like you, girlEs que tú me gusta' bandera
That's why I'm out here showing offPor eso es que ando de boleta
And you got my heartY es que tú me tienes el cora'
Doing flips and tricksHaciendo motopirueta'

They say I'm a thugDicen que soy malandro
And it's just because of my styleY es solamente por la pinta
I’m not out here stealingYo no ando robando
But I’m active on the scenePero ando activo en la pista

To, to, to love her like she deservesPa', pa', pa' quererla como ella se merece
So that when she opens her eyes, she kisses mePa' que, cuando abra los ojo', a mí me bese
What others say doesn't matter to herLo que digan lo' dema' no le interesa
She fell for this thug and I fell for the princessSe enamoró de este malandro y yo de la princesa
She fell for this thug and I fell for the princessSe enamoró de este malandro y yo de la princesa

She smells like Chanel perfumeQue ella huele a perfume Chanel
I smell like my own sweatYo huelo al sudor de mi piel
But she comes daily to my hoodPero viene a diario pa' mi barrio
To a hotelPa' un hotel

To love her like she deservesPa' quererla como ella se merece
I give her a little massage, I show her affectionYo le hago un masajito, yo le hago cariñito
Until the sun comes upHasta que el Sol aparece
And tell me, what do you think?Y dime tú, ¿qué te parece?

To love her like she deservesPa' quererla como ella se merece
I put down my gunYo suelto mi pistola
And I hustle for two jobsY a las dos chamba' le echo bola
For that womanPor esa mujer

I crown her without a crown on my headLa corono sin corona en mi cabeza
She fell for this thug and I fell for the princessSe enamoró de este malandro y yo de la princesa
She fell for this thug and I fell for the princessSe enamoró de este malandro y yo de la princesa
For the princessDe la princesa
