Jamaica Farewell

[00:04.67] Down the way
[00:05.52] Where the nights are gay
[00:07.31] And the sun shines daily on the mountaintop
[00:12.85] I took a trip on a sailing ship
[00:15.54] And when I reached Jamaica I made a stop
[00:20.08] But I'm sad to say I'm on my way
[00:25.45] Won't be back for many a day
[00:28.19] My heart is down
[00:29.92] My head is turning around
[00:32.78] I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town
[00:37.23] La la la
[00:38.18] La la
[00:39.05] La la la
[00:39.93] La la la la
[00:41.77] La la la
[00:45.37] Down at the market you can hear
[00:48.05] Ladies cry out while on their heads they bear
[00:53.56] Ackee, rice, salt, fish are nice
[00:56.26] And the rum is fine any time o'f year
[01:00.75] But I'm sad to say I'm on my way
[01:05.26] Won't be back for many a day
[01:08.92] My heart is down
[01:10.79] My head is turning around
[01:12.53] I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town
[01:17.05] La la la la
[01:18.84] La la la la
[01:20.68] La la
[01:21.53] La la la la la
[01:25.22] Sounds of laughter everywhere
[01:27.94] And the dancing girls dance to and fro
[01:33.30] I must declare my heart is there
[01:36.98] Though I've been from Maine to Mexico
[01:40.57] But I'm sad to say I'm on my way
[01:45.12] Won't be back for many a day
[01:48.73] My heart is down
[01:50.52] My head is turning around
[01:52.31] I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town
[01:56.89] La... La
[02:16.71]
