Jamaica was the lovely one, I played her well |
[00:19.74] |
As we lay in the tall grass where the shadows fell |
[00:26.43] |
Hiding from the children so they would not tell |
[00:32.92] |
We would stay there 'till her sister rang the evening bell |
[00:38.65] |
|
[00:39.52] |
Jamaica, say you will |
[00:44.41] |
Help me find a way to fill these empty hours |
[00:53.01] |
Say you will come again tomorrow |
[01:01.65] |
|
[01:03.17] |
The daughter of a captain on the rolling seas |
[01:09.31] |
She would stare across the water from the trees |
[01:15.95] |
Last time he was home he held her on his knees |
[01:22.53] |
And said the next time they would sail away just where they pleased |
[01:28.22] |
|
[01:28.68] |
Jamaica, say you will |
[01:34.09] |
Help me find a way to fill these lifeless sails |
[01:42.47] |
And stay until my ships can find the sea |
[01:51.06] |

Jamaica was a sweet young one, I loved her true |
[02:21.14] |
She was a comfort and a mercy through and through |
[02:27.58] |
Hiding from this world together, next thing I knew |
[02:34.37] |
We had brought her things down to the bay -- what could I do |
[02:40.05] |
|
[02:40.55] |
Jamaica, say you will |
[02:47.51] |
Help me find a way to fill these sails |
[02:53.72] |
And we will sail until our waters have run dry |
