Billy Eckstine - I Left My Hat in Haiti lyrics

I left my hat in Haiti In some forgotten flat in Haiti I couldn't tell you how I got there I only know it was so hot there She took my hat politely And wound her arms around me tightly But I remember nothing clearly Except the flame when she came near me Her eyes had the glow of surrender And her touch it was tender And with someone as fiery as that You forget about your hat So if you go to Haiti There is a girl I know in Haiti If you can find her you'll adore her Just look around till you've found someone who has a blue-grey fedora Her eyes had the glow of surrender And her touch it was tender And with someone as fiery as that You forget about your hat So if you go to Haiti There is a girl I know in Haiti If you can find her you'll adore her Just look around till you've found someone who has a blue-grey fedora
