Wyclef Jean - J'ouvert (Deluxe Edition)

Lady Haiti

I'm in love with Lady Haiti
And when they called me to the Grammy's
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

She in the white sand (she in the white sand)
Under the hot sun, eh (under the hot sun)
Love when she talking that Creole, eh
Gade yon bèl fanm (gade yon bel fanm)

I'm in love with Lady Haiti
And when they called me to the Grammy's
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

(Come on) 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

She in the white sand (she in the white sand)
Under the hot sun, eh
Love when she talking that Creole, eh
Gade yon bèl fanm (gade yon bel fanm)

I'm in love with Lady Haiti
And when they called me to the Grammy's
I wrapped her flag all around me (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, Haiti

Miss Haiti
I'm in love with lady Haiti
Miss Haiti

Sakapfèt, Sakapfèt, Sakapfèt
Sakapfèt chéri Ayiti map mandew, Sakapfèt
Leuw ou tombé gade jan ou lévé
Leuw ou lévé gadé jan ou
Pran fòsé leuw ou pran fòspagen
Mounn kap kenbew ou gen pouw
Dérapé avèk atake'n atake'n nou Pa Janm panike

I'm in love with Lady Haiti
Miss Haiti
I'm in love with Lady Haiti
Miss Haiti
Lady
Miss Haiti
