I Left My Hat In Haiti Lyrics - Billy Eckstine

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
