KOUTI YO
(Written by Nathalie Joachim)

Pa manyen kouti yo Don’t touch the stitches
Yo koud blese a They sewed up the wound
Pa manyen kouti yo Don’t touch the stitches
Yo koud blese a They sewed up the wound
Men blese a fon But the wound is deep
Men blese a fon But the wound is deep

Menm si li sanble geri Even if it looks healed
Menm si ou preske pa ka wè l Even if you almost can’t see it
Pa manyen kouti yo Don’t touch the stitches

Pa manyen kouti yo Don’t touch the stitches
Yo koud blese a They sewed up the wound
Pa manyen kouti yo Don’t touch the stitches
Yo koud blese a They sewed up the wound
Men blese a fon But the wound is deep

Pa manyen kouti yo Don’t touch the stitches
Yo koud blese a They sewed up the wound
Men blese a fon But the wound is deep
Men blese a fon But the wound is deep
