Down the way where the nights are gay, |
[00:21.30] |
And the sun shines daily on the mountaintop, |
[00:28.44] |
I took a trip on a sailing ship, |
[00:33.20] |
But when i reached jamaica i made her stop, |
[00:39.31] |
Now i'm sad to say, |
[00:43.05] |
I'm on my way, |
[00:46.92] |
I won't be back for many a day, |
[00:52.28] |
My heart is down, |
[00:54.49] |
My head is turning around, |
[00:57.54] |
I had to leave a little girl in kingston town, |
[01:05.13] |
Sounds of laughter everywhere, |
[01:09.97] |
And the dancing girls sway to and fro, |
[01:17.08] |
I must declare my heart is there, |
[01:21.70] |
Though i have been from maine to mexico, |
[01:27.58] |
Still i'm sad to say, |
[01:30.99] |
I'm on my way, |
[01:34.94] |
I won't be back for many a day, |
[01:40.22] |
My heart is down, |
[01:42.38] |
My head is turning around, |
[01:45.20] |
I had to leave a little girl in kingston town, |
[02:05.57] |
Down at the market you can hear, |
[02:10.44] |
Ladies cry out while on their heads they bear, |
[02:17.38] |
Ackev rice, salt fish are nice, |
[02:22.26] |
Oh the rum is fine anytime of year, |
[02:28.22] |
Now i'm sad to say, |
[02:31.64] |
I'm on my way, |
[02:35.51] |
I won't be back for many a day, |
[02:40.67] |
My heart is down, |
[02:42.83] |
My head is turning around, |
[02:45.73] |
I had to leave a little girl in kingston town, |
[02:53.26] |
Now i'm sad to say, |
[02:55.42] |
I'm on my way, |
[02:58.89] |
I won't be back for many a day, |
[03:04.10] |
My heart is down, |
[03:06.20] |
My head is turning around, |
[03:08.97] |
I had to leave a little girl in kingston town, |
[03:16.15] |
Now i'm sad to say, |
[03:18.57] |

[03:22.37] |
I won't be back for many a day, |
[03:27.44] |
My heart is down, |
[03:29.49] |
My head is turning around, |
[03:32.37] |
I had to leave a little girl in kingston town, |
[03:39.97] |
Now i'm sad to say, |
[03:42.33] |
