[00:19.16]Down the bay where the nights are gay
[00:22.61]And the sun shines daily on the mountain top
[00:27.51]I took a trip on a sailing ship
[00:30.56]And when I reached Jamaica I made a stop
[00:34.97]But I'm sad to say I'm on my way
[00:40.26]Won't be back for many a day
[00:43.81]My heart is down, my head is turning around
[00:47.46]I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town
[00:53.21]
[00:54.81]Sounds of laughter everywhere
[00:58.40]And the dancing girls sway to and fro
[01:03.40]I must declare my heart is there
[01:05.89]Though I've been from Maine to Mexico
[01:10.85]But I'm sad to say I'm on my way
[01:16.20]Won't be back for many a day
[01:19.70]My heart is down, my head is turning around
[01:23.45]I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town
[01:27.90]
[01:45.85]Down the market you can hear
[01:49.00]Ladies cry out while on their heads they bear
[01:54.10]`Akey' rice, salt fish are nice
[01:57.40]And the rum is fine any time of year
[02:01.56]But I'm sad to say I'm on my way
[02:05.65]
[02:06.75]Won't be back for many a day
[02:10.01]My heart is down, my head is turning around
[02:13.85]I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town
[02:18.49]My heart is down, my head is turning around
[02:22.18]I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town
[02:26.87]My heart is down, my head is turning around
[02:30.52]I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town
