| [00:11.45] |
Down the way where the nights are gay |
| [00:14.45] |
And the sun shines daily on the mountaintop |
| [00:19.14] |
I took a trip on a sailing ship |
| [00:21.76] |
But when i reached jamaica i made her stop |
| [00:26.45] |
Chorus:Now i'm sad to say |

My heart is down |
| [00:38.39] |
My head is turning around |
| [00:39.76] |
I had to leave a little girl in kingston town |
| [00:45.62] |
Sounds of laughter everywhere |
| [00:46.96] |
And the dancing girls sway to and fro |
| [00:51.72] |
I must declare my heart is there |
| [00:54.53] |
Though i have been from maine to mexico |
| [00:57.09] |
Chorus:Still i'm sad to say |
| [01:00.34] |
I'm on my way my |
| [01:07.56] |

My head is turning around |
| [01:13.69] |
I had to leave a little girl in kingston town |
| [01:16.87] |
Down at the market you can hear |
| [01:20.18] |
Ladies cry out while on their heads they bear |
| [01:22.44] |
Ackev rice, salt fish are nice |
| [01:24.81] |
Oh the rum is fine anytime of year |
| [01:27.49] |

My heart is down |
