Hips Don't Lie (feat. Wyclef Jean)
Oral Fixation Vol. 2

[Wyclef]
Ladies up in here tonight
No fighting, no fighting
We got the refugees up in here
No fighting, no fighting
Shakira, Shakira

I never really knew that she could dance like this
She makes a man want to speak Spanish
Cómo se llama, bonita, mi casa, su casa
Shakira, Shakira

[Shakira]
Oh baby when you talk like that
You make a woman go mad
So be wise and keep on
Reading the signs of my body

And 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

[Wyclef]
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

And when you walk up on the dance floor
Nobody can ignore the way you move your body, girl
And everything so unexpected – the way you right and left it
So you can keep on taking it

I never really knew that she could dance like this
She makes a man want to speak Spanish
Cómo se llama, bonita, mi casa, su casa
Shakira, Shakira

[Shakira]
Oh baby when you talk like that
You make a woman go mad
So be wise and keep on
Reading the signs of my body

And 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

Oh I know I am 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

[Wyclef]
Shakira, Shakira

[Shakira]
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 am doing what I can, but I can’t so you know
That’s a bit too hard to explain

[Both]
Baila en la calle de noche
Baila en la calle de día
Baila en la calle de noche
Baila en la calle de día
[Wyclef]
I never really knew that she could dance like this
She makes a man want to speak Spanish
Cómo se llama, bonita, mi casa, su casa
Shakira, Shakira

[Shakira]
Oh baby when you talk like that
You know you got me hypnotized
So be wise and keep on
Reading the signs of my body

[Wyclef]
Señorita, feel the conga, let me see you
move like you come from Colombia

[Shakira]
Mira en Barranquilla se baila así!
[Wyclef]
Mira en Barranquilla se baila así
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
I need a whole club dizzy
Why the CIA wanna watch us?
Colombians and Haitians
I ain’t guilty, it’s a musical transaction
No more do we snatch ropes
Refugees run the seas ’cause we own our own boats

[Shakira]
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

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







I never really knew that she could dance like this
She makes a man want to speak Spanish
Whats your name, baby, my house, yours
Shakira, Shakira



























































[Both]
Dance in the street at night
Dance in the street during the day
Dance in the street at night
Dance in the street during the day
[Wyclef]
I never really knew that she could dance like this
She makes a man want to speak Spanish
What
s your name, baby, my house, yours
Shakira, Shakira











[Shakira]
Watch, in Barranquilla we dance like this!
[Wyclef]
Watch, in Barranquilla we dance like this
