[Intro]
Uépa

[Chorus]
Un, dos, tres, un pasito pa'lante, María
Un, dos, tres, un pasito pa'tras
(Uépa)
(Uépa)
Un, dos, tres
Un, dos, tres

[Verse 1]
(Es que me tiene loco)
She's the one that always turns me on
Sexy angel fallen from heaven
She's the one that always drives me wild
In her arms she's driving forever

[Bridge 1]
Asi es María, blanca como el día
Pero es veneno, si te quieres enamorar
Asi es María, tan caliente y fría
Que si te la bebes
De seguro te va a matar
(Uépa)

[Chorus]
Un, dos, tres un pasito pa'lante María
Un, dos, tres un pasito pa'atras (Aunque me muera)
Un, dos, tres un pasito pa'lante María (María)
Un, dos, tres un pasito pa'atrás (María, I wanna make you mine)

(Es que me tiene loco)

[Verse 2]
María es
An angel in disguise
Feeds my love with her devotion
Searching for a special place to hide
As she conquers all my emotions

[Bridge 1]
Asi es María, blanca como el día
Pero es veneno, si te quieres enamorar
Asi es María, tan caliente y fría
Que si te la bebes
De seguro te va a matar
(Uépa)

[Chorus]
Un, dos, tres un pasito pa'lante María
Un, dos, tres un pasito pa'atras (Aunque me muera)
Un, dos, tres un pasito pa'lante María (María)
Un, dos, tres un pasito pa'atrás (María, I wanna make you mine)

[Bridge 2]
Un pasito pa'delante
Un pasito pa'atras
Un pasito pa'delante
Un pasito pa'atras (María, María)
Un pasito pa'delante
Un pasito pa'atras (María)
Un pasito pa'delante
Un pasito pa'atras
(Uépa)

[Bridge 3]
(Uépa)
Un, dos, tres
Un, dos, tres
Un, dos, tres, un pasito pa'delante, María
Un, dos, tres, un pasito pa'atras

(Uépa)

[Bridge 1]
Asi es María, blanca como el día
Pero es veneno, si te quieres enamorar
Asi es María, tan caliente y fría
Que si te la bebes
De seguro te va a matar
(Uépa)

[Chorus]
Un, dos, tres un pasito pa'lante María
Un, dos, tres un pasito pa'atras (Aunque me muera)
Un, dos, tres un pasito pa'lante María (María)
Un, dos, tres un pasito pa'atrás (María, I wanna make you mine)

Un, dos, tres un pasito pa'lante María
Un, dos, tres un pasito pa'atras (Aunque me muera)
Un, dos, tres un pasito pa'lante María (María)
Un, dos, tres un pasito pa'atrás (María, I wanna make you mine)

Un, dos, tres, un pasito pa'delante, María
Un, dos, tres, un pasito pa'atras (Uépa)

Enrique Martín Morales (born December 24, 1971), commonly known as Ricky Martin, is a Puerto Rican singer, actor and author. Martin began his career at age 12 with the all-boy pop group Menudo. After five years with the group, he released several Spanish-language solo albums throughout the 1990s. He also acted on stage and on TV in Mexico, where he achieved modest stardom. In 1994, he appeared on the US TV soap opera General Hospital, playing a Puerto Rican singer.

In early 1999, after releasing several albums in Spanish, Martin performed “The Cup of Life” at the 41st Annual Grammy Awards show, which became a catalyst in bringing Latin pop to the forefront of the U.S. music scene. Following its success, Martin released “Livin' la Vida Loca”, which helped him attain enormous success worldwide; it is generally seen as the song that began the Latin pop explosion of 1999 and made the transition easier for other Spanish-speaking artists to move into the English-speaking market. Since its release, the song has sold over 8 million copies, making it one of the best selling singles of all time. His first English-language album (also titled Ricky Martin), has sold 22 million copies and is one of the best selling albums of all time. His other studio albums Me Amarás (1993), A Medio Vivir (1995), Vuelve (1998), Sound Loaded (2000), Almas del Silencio (2003), Life (2005), Música + Alma + Sexo (2011), and A Quien Quiera Escuchar (2015). In 2018, he portrayed Antonio D'Amico on The Assassination of Gianni American Crime Story for which he received a nomination for the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Limited Series or Movie.
