No Picture John Rhythm Player	#1 by John McElyea at Dec 25, 1975 at 2:29 PM EST
	lol if u say the lyrics fast sounds like ure saying oi cum ova me lol sad i know but still thought i shud post it

No Picture *Lee Average	#2 by Lee at Nov 27, 1981 at 7:44 PM EST
	It basically means "Hey you, come here, come and feel my rhythm, prostitute" sorry if it ruins the song for anyone but "mulata" is slang for prostitute in spain

No Picture Kyle Wanna Be	#3 by Kyle Kom at Aug 17, 1982 at 2:29 AM EST
	does anybody know what he says in the beginning? it sounds like "rrrrrrrrrrr, sabor" which is, in english, i think, "rrrrrrrrrrr, flavor" but, yeah. i don't know if that's right.

No Picture Simon (Si) Lead Player	#4 by Simon (Si) Brown at Oct 30, 1982 at 11:01 AM EST
	but you also have to remember the culture differences and prostitute isnt such a strict word.

No Picture Guitar FrE@k Average	#5 by Guitar FrE@k Freak at Sep 10, 1986 at 8:56 AM EST
	what does pa' stand for? and isn't the last word bailar, not mulata?
