Jamaica Farewell |
|
The Brother Four |
|
|
|
Down the way where the nights are gay |
|
And the sun shines daily on the mountain top |
|
I took a trip on a sailing ship |
|
And when I reached Jamaica i made her stop |
|
|
|
But I\'m sad to say I\'m on my way |
|
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 swaying to and fro |
|
I must declare my heart is there |
|
Though I have been from Maine to Mexico |
|
But I\'m sad to say I\'m on my way |
|
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 |
|
And the rum is fine anytime of year |
|
But I\'m sad to say I\'m on my way |
|
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 |
|
My heart is down my head is turning around |
|
I had to leave a little girl in Kingston Town |
|
My heart is down my head is turning around |
|
I had to leave a little girl in Kingston Town |
|
|
|
End |
