Some say
How Ti Moune began the long journey toward the city
Some say
Some say her feet were bare and the road was long and cruel
Some say
Some say she got a ride from a vendor and his mule
Some say
The gods pulled up in a car and drove her all the way
Well, no one knows how the real truth goes
But that's what some say
Some say
And how far did she travel?
As far as you suppose
And how long did it take her?
Much longer than your nose!
And was she ever frightened?
Or was her love too strong?
And did she know she'd end up
In our story and our song? (Our story and our song)
Ha, bi, bi (taxi)
Ha, bi, bi (taxi)
Ha, bi, bi, ha
Some say
What happened when Ti Moune finally reached the city?
Some say
Some say they laughed at her for her peasant feet were bare
Some say
Some say the vendor man gave her shoes too small to wear
Some say
The gods said, "Put on the shoes, it's a price you have to pay"
The shoes were tight, but she said, "Alright"
Well, that's what some say
Some say
At last, Ti Moune arrived at the gates of the Hotel Beauxhomme
Stop!
But the gods looked down, the gates swung open
And Ti Moune went in search of her Daniel
Some say
Some say she scrubbed the floors 'til she learned where he was kept
Some say
Some say she climbed a vine to the window where he slept
Some say
The gods just lifted her up and placed her where he lay
Well, no one knows how the real truth goes
It all depends what you hear from friends
It's no surprise if it's all just lies
But that's what some say (some say)
That's what some say (some say)
That's what some say (some say)
That's what some say
