Lyrics
[Verse 1]
[F] Say it slow with me
[F] “Tengo hambre”
[F] Ten-go ahm-breh
[M] Means “I’m hungry”
[M] Say it again with me
[F] Ten-go ahm-breh
[M] Use that when you need food
[M] When your stomach talks first
[F] Ten-go ahm-breh
[F] One more time, nice and clean
[Pre-Chorus]
[M] Put the stress on TEN-go
[F] Then glide into AHM-breh
[M] Not “tengo ham-bray”
[F] No, baby, it’s ahm-breh
[M] Listen close, now repeat
[F] Ten-go ahm-breh
[M] Say it like this
[F] Ten-go ahm-breh
[Chorus]
[F] Tengo hambre, tengo hambre
[M] That means I’m hungry
[F] Tengo hambre, say it with me
[M] Tengo hambre, nice and easy
[F] Ten-go ahm-breh
[M] Ten-go ahm-breh
[F] Ten-go ahm-breh
[M] That means I’m hungry
[Verse 2]
[M] If you’re at the table
[M] Or walking in the door
[F] You can say it clearly
[F] Then ask for a little more
[M] Tengo hambre
[F] Ten-go ahm-breh
[M] Keep your mouth relaxed
[F] And let it roll out soft
[Pre-Chorus]
[F] TEN-go
[M] AHM-breh
[F] TEN-go
[M] AHM-breh
[F] Say the whole thing
[M] Ten-go ahm-breh
[F] Say it like a native
[M] Ten-go ahm-breh
[Chorus]
[F] Tengo hambre, tengo hambre
[M] That means I’m hungry
[F] Tengo hambre, say it with me
[M] Tengo hambre, nice and easy
[F] Ten-go ahm-breh
[M] Ten-go ahm-breh
[F] Ten-go ahm-breh
[M] That means I’m hungry
[Bridge]
[M] Now you try it on your own
[F] Ten-go ahm-breh
[M] Good
[F] Again
[M] Ten-go ahm-breh
[F] Perfect
[M] If you want a meal, you know
[F] Ten-go ahm-breh
[Chorus]
[F] Tengo hambre, tengo hambre
[M] That means I’m hungry
[F] Tengo hambre, say it with me
[M] Tengo hambre, nice and easy
[F] Ten-go ahm-breh
[M] Ten-go ahm-breh
[F] Ten-go ahm-breh
[M] That means I’m hungry
