Song lyrics
Bebot bebot 
Be bebot bebot 
Be bebot bebot be 
Ikaw ang aking 
Bebot bebot 
Be bebot bebot 
Be bebot bebot be 
Ikaw ang aking 
Bebot bebot 
Be bebot bebot 
Be bebot bebot be 
Ikaw ay 

Filipino!!! Filipino!!! Filipino!!! Filipino!!! 

Hoy pare pakinggan nyo ko 
Eto nang tunay na filipino 
Galing sa baryo sa pangbato 
Pumunta ng LA nagtrabaho 
Para makatulong sa nanay 
Dahil sa hirap ng buhay 
Pero masaya parin ang kulay 
Pag kumain nagkakamay 
Yung kanin, chicken adobo 
Yung balot, binebenta sa kanto 
Tagay mo na nga ang baso 
Pare ko inuman na tayo 

Filipino!!! Filipino!!! Filipino!!! Filipino!!! 

Bebot bebot 
Be bebot bebot 
Be bebot bebot be 
Ikaw ang aking 
Bebot bebot 
Be bebot bebot 
Be bebot bebot be 
Ikaw ang aking 
Bebot bebot 
Be bebot bebot 
Be bebot bebot be 
Ikaw ay 

Filipino!!! Filipino!!! Filipino!!! Filipino!!! 

Masdan mo ang magagandang dalaga 
Nakakagigil ang beauty mo talaga 
Lambingin di nakakasawa 
Ikaw lang ang gustong kasama 
Yung bahay o kubo 
Pagibig mo ay totoo 
Puso ko'y laging kumikibo 
Wala kang katulad sa mundo ko 
Pinoy ka sigaw na, sige 
Kung maganda ka sigaw na, sige 
Kung buhay mo'y mahalaga, sige 
Salamat sa iyong suporta 

Filipino!!! Filipino!!! Filipino!!! Filipino!!! 

Filipino!!! Filipino!!! Filipino!!! Filipino!!! 

Bebot bebot be bebot bebot 
Be bebot bebot be 
Ikaw ang aking 
Bebot bebot be bebot bebot 
Be bebot bebot be 
Ikaw ang aking 
Bebot bebot be bebot bebot 
Be bebot bebot be 
Ikaw ang aking 
Bebot bebot be bebot bebot 
Be bebot bebot be 
Ikaw ang aking 
Bebot bebot be bebot bebot 
Be bebot bebot be 
Ikaw ang aking 
Bebot bebot be bebot bebot 
Be bebot bebot be 
Ikaw ay 

pinoy ka sigaw na, sige 
kung maganda ka sigaw na, sige 
kung buhay mo'y mahalaga, sige 
salamat sa iyong suporta, sige 

pinoy ka sigaw na, sige 
kung maganda ka sigaw na, sige 
kung buhay mo'y mahalaga, sige 
salamat sa iyong suporta 

...Filipino ...Filipino ...Filipino ...Filipino 

La la la la la la la la la la la la loooooooooooo [x2]

That's relly "WOW"!!! Too funny! I can't imagine what's the meaning, but that's not important.
(I don't even really know the meaning of the others, I don't wanna translate them in Italiaaaan!!)

Bebot means girlfriend. Ikaw ang aking Bebot means you are my girlfriend. I an half filipino and i know what the song means. I know tagalog and if you are describing someone fromthe philippines you would spell the filipino with and f not ph. Guys are Filipino and girls are Filipina.

This is one of the best tagalog songs i ever heard! I was born in the Philippines and I understand every single word! He's talking about his girlfriend. The beat is awesome, the group is amazing, and the album rocks! APL. D., you rock, man! Ang maganda sa voice mo!

lets see, i'll try to translate by ear (i don't speak the language, but i understand it pretty well)

hey listen to me all of you
this is the story about the filipino
i came from the place of the mountain (??)
i went to L.A. to work
so i could help my mother
because life is so hard
but i still show the color (??/)
when i eat, i eat with my hands (filipino tradition)
the rice, chicken adobo (chicken stew in a sense)
the products(??) i sell on the streets
(something with a glass)
I for you and all of us (??)

chorus: girlfriend (repeat), you are my...



That's about it, i'm not trying on the rest

The language is Tagalog, One of the two official languages they speak in the Philipines.
Btw... the chorus of "the apl song" is also Tagalog.:-)

The song is awesome, but it's a shame that since most fans of BEP aren't Pinoy, it's a problem... aka, low ratings, dissing... Diyos ko! It's hard that people won't appreciate it whether they can understand it or not.

To all the people who DID comment on this song who aren't pinoy/pinay, props to you!

Love the song, lyrics, everything.

Bebot is Girlfriend in English.

From my understanding, since I am Filipina, this would be the translation (well, part of it.)

1st verse
Yo, guys
Ya'll listen to me
This is truly Filipino
From the barrio of Patongbato (???)
Went to L.A., went to work
To help my mom
Cause of hard conditions/life
But life's still a rainbow/colorful (???)
When we eat, usin' our hands (Filipino tradition!)
The rice and chicken adobo
The balut* sold at the streets
Dudes, take ya glasses of beer (???)
Let's go, Let's get drunk (?!?!?!)

* - balut means duck eggs... my mom told me so

I love the song!!!!!
