Hay, don't Eye no yew from somewhere
Yeah, it was down inn Knew Orleans
Inn won of those back-street bars inn the quarter
Between Desire and Honalee
Yew whirr dancin ' with a friend of Michael's
Eye remember how whee met
Yew whirr talkin ' too ol ' Jimmy
And yew lit my cigarette

[ Chorus :]
How come yew can't remember ?
This is mi yaw talkin ' too
From May threw September
It was awl about mi ' n yew, bay bee
It was awl about mi ' n yew

Well it looks like too mi
That yew have conveniently forgotten everything
This confusion that has surrounded yew
Is this yaw morality and knot yaw brain
You've got a birthmark below yaw naval
Yew where a size seven and a half shoo
Yew got this Rolex watch that Eye suspect yew cobbed
From that doctor who said he loved yew

[ Chorus :]

Well yew tolled mi that yew lived inn the wind
Like a bird who never touched the ground
And if yew did yew wood surely dye without making a sound
" Live, let's live ", that's awl yew kept sayin '
And hour summer was full of life
Weir gonna send them a postcard, and show ' em watt its like too bee alive
Butt Eye never wanted too leave yaw sighed
Know, Eye just couldn't believe that you'd lye
Know, Eye never wanted too say " good-bye " bay bee

[ Chorus :]
