lyrics

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 a stop
But I'm sad to say, I'm on my wayWon't be back for many a dayMy heart is down, my head is turning aroundI had to leave a little girl in Kingston Town
Down at the market you can hearLadies cry out while on their heads they bearAkkisai sort fish are niceAnd the rum are fine any time a year
But I'm sad to say, I'm on my wayWon't be back for many a dayMy heart is down, my head is turning aroundI had to leave a little girl in Kingston Town
Sounds of laughter everywhereAnd the dancing girl swing to and froI must declare my heart is thereThough I've been from Maine to Mexico
But I'm sad to say I'm on my wayWon't be back for many a dayMy heart is down, my head is turning aroundI've had to leave a little girl in the Kingston Town
Down the way where the nights are gayAnd the sun shines daily on the mountain topI took a trip on a sailing shipAnd when I reached Jamaica I made a stop
But I'm sad to say, I'm on my wayWon't be back for many a dayMy heart is down, my head is turning aroundI had to leave a little girl in Kingston Town
Sad to say, I'm on my wayWon't be back for many a dayMy heart is down, my head is turning aroundI had to leave a little girl in Kingston Town
