Jamaica Farewell歌词

Down the way where the nights are gay,
And the sun shines daily on the mountaintop,
I took a trip on a sailing ship,
But when i reached jamaica i made her stop,
Now i'm sad to say,
I'm on my way,
I won't be back for many a day,
My heart is down,
My head is turning around,
I had to leave a little girl in kingston town,
Sounds of laughter everywhere,
And the dancing girls sway to and fro,
I must declare my heart is there,
Though i have been from maine to mexico,
Still i'm sad to say,
I'm on my way,
I won't be back for many a day,
My heart is down,
My head is turning around,
I had to leave a little girl in kingston town,
Down at the market you can hear,
Ladies cry out while on their heads they bear,
Ackev rice, salt fish are nice,
Oh the rum is fine anytime of year,
Now i'm sad to say,
I'm on my way,
I won't be back for many a day,
My heart is down,
My head is turning around,
I had to leave a little girl in kingston town,
Now i'm sad to say,
I'm on my way,
I won't be back for many a day,
My heart is down,
My head is turning around,
I had to leave a little girl in kingston town,
Now i'm sad to say,
I'm on my way,
I won't be back for many a day,
My heart is down,
My head is turning around,
I had to leave a little girl in kingston town,
Now i'm sad to say,
I'm on my way,
I won't be back for many a day,
My heart is down,
My head is turning around,
I had to leave a little girl in kingston town,
