Some Say Lyrics
ALL STORYTELLERS
Some say...
STORYTELLER
How Ti Moune began the long journey
toward the city!
ALL
Some say:
STORYTELLER
Some say her feet were bare
And the road was long and cruel
ALL
Some say:
STORYTELLER
Some say she got a ride
>From a vendor and his mule
ALL
Some say:
STORYTELLER
The gods pulled up in a car
And drove her all the way
ALL
Well, no one knows
How the real truth goes
But that's what some say!
Some say!
LITTLE GIRL
And how far did she travel?
STORYTELLERS
As far as you suppose
LITTLE GIRL
And how long did it take her?
STORYTELLERS
Much longer than your nose!
LITTLE GIRL
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?
ALL
Our story and out song...
ALL
Some say:
STORYTELLER
What happened when Ti Moune finally
reached the city!
ALL
Some say:
TWO STORYTELLERS
Some say they laughed at her
For her peasant feet were bare
ALL
Some say:
TWO STORYTELLERS
Some say the vendor man
Gave her shoes too small to wear
ALL
Some say:
STORYTELLER
The gods said put on the shoes!
It's a price you have to pay!
ALL
The shoes were tight
But she said,
LITTLE GIRL
All right!
ALL
Well, that's what some say!
Some say!
STORYTELLER
At last Ti Moune arrived at the gates of the
Hotel Beauxhomme.
GUARD
Stop!
STORYTELLER
But the gods looked down. The gates swung
open. And Ti Moune went in search of her
Daniel.
ALL
Some say...
WOMAN
Some say she
Scrubbed the
Floors
Till she learned
Where he was
Kept
Some say...
MAN
Some say she
Climbed a vine
To the window
Where he slept
WOMAN
Some say...
WOMAN, MAN
The gods just
Lifted her up
And placed her
Where he lay
ALL
Well, no one
Knows how the
Real truth goes
It all depends
What you hear
From friends
It's no surprise
It it's all
Just lies
But that's what
Some say
That's what
Some say
That's what
Some say...
That's what
Some say...
TI MOUNE
The gods sent me to make you well.
DANIEL
You're very young
TI MOUNE
I can all this way to be with you.
Let me stay
