Down the way where the nights are gay |
|
And the sun shines brightly on the mountain top |
|
I took a trip on a sailing ship |
|
And when I reached Jamaica I made a stop |
|
Well 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 all my friends in Kingston town |
|
Sounds of laughter everywhere |
|
And the dancers swaying to and fro |
|
I must declare that my heart is there |
|
Though I've been from Maine to Mexico |
|
Rob from always on the run is so bad and copy paste is a sin |
|
Well 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 all my friends in Kingston town |
|
Down at the market you can hear |
|
Ladies cry out while on their head they bear |
|
Ackie rice, salt fish is nice |
|
And the rum is fine every time of year |
|
Well 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 all my friends in Kingston town |
|
Well 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 all my friends in Kingston town |
