"Lady Haiti" lyrics - WYCLEF JEAN
[Hook:]
I'm in love with Lady Haiti
And when they called me to the Grammys
I wrapped her flag all around me
'Cause I'm in love with Lady Haiti
I'm so in love they call me crazy
I left the music went to Haiti
Even though they tried to stop me
I've seen the earth shake right under her feet
She told me 'baby don't weep'
I'm sitting on Oprah, tears in my eyes
I knew your story ever since a kid
Developed a crush when I heard what you did
1804 you made my people free
You the reason I feel I can be anything
[Bridge:]
She in the white sand
Under the hot sun, eh
Love when she talking that Creole, eh
Gade bel fanm
[Hook:]
I'm in love with Lady Haiti
And when they called me to the Grammys
I wrapped her flag all around me
'Cause I'm in love with Lady Haiti
I'm so in love they call me crazy
I left the music went to Haiti
Even though they tried to stop me
I'm in love with lady Haiti
Miss Haiti
Miss Haiti
They tried to make you turn on me for real
Said I stole everything that we built
You told me don't bother, the truth's in my eyes
From the bottom of the buck and straight to the top
Every time you around I can feel the clock stop
Despite what they think, we got a chance
'Cause we got one last dance
[Bridge:]
She in the white sand
Under the hot sun, eh
Love when she talking that Creole, eh
Gade bel fanm
[Hook:]
I'm in love with Lady Haiti
And when they called me to the Grammys
I wrapped her flag all around me
'Cause I'm in love with Lady Haiti
I'm so in love they call me crazy
I left the music went to Haiti
Even though they tried to stop me
I'm in love with lady Haiti
Miss Haiti
Miss Haiti
Sakapfet, Sakapfet, Sakapfet
Sakapfet cheri Ayiti map mandew
Sakapfet
Leuw ou tombe gade jan ou leve
Leuw ou leve gade jan ou
Pran fos e leuw ou pran fos pagen
Mounn kap kenbew Ou gen pouw
Derape avek atakenn nou Pa Janm panike
[Outro:]
I'm in love with Lady Haiti
Miss Haiti
I'm in love with Lady Haiti
Miss Haiti
Lady
Miss Haiti
