Steely Dan - Haitian Divorce lyrics

rate me

Babs and Clean Willie were in love they said

So in love the preacher's face turned red

Soon everybody knew the thing was dead

He shouts, she bites, they wrangle through the night

She go crazy

Got to make a getaway

Papa say

CHORUS:

Oh - no hesitation

No tears and no hearts breakin'

No remorse

Oh - congratulations

This is your Haitian Divorce

She takes the taxi to the good hotel

Bon marché as far as she can tell

She drinks the zombie from the cocoa shell

She feels alright, she get it on tonight

Mister driver

Take me where the music play

Papa say

CHORUS

At the Grotto

In the greasy chair

Sits the Charlie with the lotion and the kinky hair

When she smiled, she said it all

The band was hot so

They danced the famous Merengue

Now we dolly back

Now we fade to black

Tearful reunion in the USA

Day by day those memories fade away

Some babies grow in a peculiar way

It changed, it grew, and everybody knew

Semi-mojo

Who's this kinky so-and-so?

Papa go

CHORUS
