Lyrics

[Chorus]

I used to be a ho, but now I ain't no more

Been swimming through the water, now I'm back to shore

I look at who I did and I'm like, "Oh, my Lord"

I used to be a ho, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Now I ain't no more, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

I used to be a ho, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Now I ain't no more, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

[Verse 1]

Una perra de raza muy dura de matar

Pero ahora soy mansa y ya no muerdo más

Rompí muchos corazones y a mí no me lo rompieron

Pero ya yo no quiero, 'toy tranquila y ya

[Verse 2]

Andé por el mundo buscando placer, pero ya no queda na', na', na'

No discriminaba ni rico ni pobre, a toditos les daba

Keep talking 'cause I ain't gon' hear what you say

Time to switch up energy

[Chorus]

I used to be a ho, but now I ain't no more

Been swimming through the water, now I'm back to shore

I look at who I did and I'm like, "Oh, my Lord"

I used to be a ho, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Now I ain't no more, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

I used to be a ho, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Now I ain't no more, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Used to be one, but I ain't no more

[Verse 3]

Una perra de raza muy dura de matar

Pero ahora soy mansa y ya no muerdo más

Yo rompía toa' las camas, pero ya no hago reguero

Ahora para comerlo debe ser uno (Ah, ah)

[Verse 4]

Andé por el mundo buscando placer, pero ya no queda na', na', na'

No discriminaba ni rico ni pobre, a toditos les daba

Keep talking 'cause I ain't gon' hear what you say

Time to switch up energy

[Chorus]

I used to be a ho, but now I ain't no more

Been swimming through the water, now I'm back to shore

I look at who I did and I'm like, "Oh, my Lord"

I used to be a ho, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Now I ain't no more, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

I used to be a ho, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Now I ain't no more, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Used to be one, but I ain't no more

[Outro]

Una perra de raza

Muy dura de matar

Pero ahora soy mansa

Y ya no muerdo más

Una perra de raza

Used to be one, but I ain't no more
