"Baila mi Son", is a medium tempo "Son" - rich and rhythmic, sparkling and seductive. Felix Baloy's voice marks him out as one of Cuba's finest soneros. Baloy has been one of the key vocalists in the Buena Vista Social club project.
Yanko, let go of the potato, boy! The son was born in beautiful Cuba, and in rhythm there is no other equal, it places your hips well, without realizing it it makes you dance. Come closer, my love, let's mark the rhythm well, here on this little brick start enjoying my son and you'll see. Hey, ha, ha. Oh!, good thing. My son that is calling you.

¡Yanko, suelta la papa, muchacho!
El son nació en Cuba bella,
y en ritmo no hay otro igual,
coloca bien las caderas,
sin darte cuenta te pone a bailar.
Acércate, mi vidita,
marquemos bien el compás,
aquí en este ladrillito
ponte a gozar mi son y verás.
Oye, ja, ja.
¡Ay!, cosita buena.
Mi son que te está llamado.
Si tú sigues gozando conmigo.
Pero ven a guarachar bueno y tú verás.
Quiéreme, cosita santa.
Que yo me voy contigo para Santiago.
Allí voy a bailar sabroso.
Mira que bien, que bien me voy a sentir.
Pero ven a gozar mi son que te está llamando.
Mira cosa buena, como vengo
¡Ay! Dios, yo vengo guarachando bueno.
Yo vengo bueno y sereno gozando, mamá.
Tú, tú, tú sabes que te estoy llevando.
Mi son sabroso y bonito.
Pero baila mi son, mi son, mi son.
¡Ay! como viene el Negrón a gozar.
¡Ay!, pero mira, mira, mira, mira, mira, mira, mira, mira.
No, no, no me estén diciendo
¡Ay!, yo vengo de allá de Oriente bailando.
Con una muchacha buena que me está llamando.
Vacílalo, vacílalo y ya tú verás.
Pero mira qué bonito, bonito mi son.
Qué rico, qué lindo mi son montuno.
Es tan bueno, que es bueno como ninguno.
Si tú lo gozas, eh, si tú lo bailas.
Tú lo bailas cosa buena ven, ven, ven,
Ven que te estoy llamando.
Yo me voy para la loma
a ver los timberos, timberos, timberos, timberos.
Timberos, la timba layé te llama.
¡Ay!, cosa buena, mira como gozo.
Mas doncella en tí confío.
Confío para que alivies mis penas.
Y me alivias la condena.
Condena que sufre el corazón mío.
Y a tus plantas sin desvío,
Gozoso yo me postraré,
y con amor besaré
tu rostro cual relicario.
Quiéreme, quiéreme, quiéreme, quiéreme, quiéreme, quiéreme.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Báilalo, gózalo.
Por eso ya me lo llevo.
Por eso me voy, con sentimiento pero vuelvo mañana.
¡Seguro!.
