Katie went to Haiti

Refrain 1

Katie went to Haiti,

Stopped off for a rest.

Katie met a natie,

Katie was impressed.

After a week in Haiti She started to go away,

Then Katie met another natie,

So Katie prolonged her stay.

After a month in Haiti

She decided to resume her trip,

But Katie met still another natie And Katie missed the ship.

So Katie lived in Haiti,

Her life there, it was great,

’Cause Katie knew her Haiti And practically all Haiti knew Katie.

(R. Kimball (ed The complete R. Kimball (ed.), The complete lyrics of Cole Porter. N. York: Da Capo, 1992.)
