Right now if you got problem

Ture story, I got my green card

Let me see them lighters up in the air
As I reminisce
Oh x6
I reminisce I reminisce
(here's another one)
Oh x6
Clef
Things done changed but they stay
the same You can fake that swagga
but can't fake the name
Cuz I got the slang to make the chitty
bang bang
Bidi Bidi Bom Bom, Bidi Bidi Bom Bom
That's when I asked Melissa,
"What's that song?"
She said, "That's Selena playing
all night long."
I said "Where you from?" She said
"Mexico."
We got that Bidi Bidi Bom Bom,
Bidi Bidi Bom Bom
Chorus
Bidi Bidi Bom Bom, Oh Selena
Bidi Bidi Bom Bom, Oh Selena
Bidi Bidi Bom Bom, Bidi (Bidi Bom)
She got that fire

Raised in America (Oh)
I wish I had a chance to meet her,
Bidi Bidi (Bom) Selena
I Reminisce, I Reminisce
Melissa
A yo Clef let me get that balia
I'm a shimmy shimmy on while you sip
tequila
Manos arriba reppin latinas
With the Bidi Bidi Bom Bom,
Bidi Bidi Bom Bom
Selena brought pride to a generation
Inspiration is the hope
for the immigration
I can still hear your voice
echoing through my system
With the Bidi Bidi Bom Bom,
Bidi Bidi Bom Bom
Chorus
And when the heavens open I saw
Selia Curz
I heard her say "Asucar turn this on."
Tito Puente's dressed in white
Playing timbales while the angels
sing with Selena
Ay Mamma. Is you carnival shoes on.
