[00:02.46] Kingston Town
[00:05.76] Harry Belafonte
[00:07.61]
[00:11.02] Down the way, where the nights are gay,
[00:14.06] and the sun shines daily on the mountain top,
[00:19.14] I took a trip on a sailing ship,
[00:22.07] and when I reach Jamaica I made a stop.
[00:25.71]
[00:26.58] But I'm sad to say,
[00:28.78] I'm on my way,
[00:31.30] won't be back for many a day.
[00:34.90] My heart is down,
[00:36.20] my head is turning around,
[00:38.59] I had to leave a little girl in Kingston Town.
[00:43.32]
[00:45.75] Down the market you can hear
[00:49.04] Ladies cry out while on their heads they bear
[00:54.65] `Akey' rice, salt fish are nice
[01:01.11] And the rum is fine any time of year
[01:01.33] But I'm sad to say,
[01:04.03] I'm on my way,
[01:08.24] won't be back for many a day.
[01:10.41] My heart is down,
[01:11.71] my head is turning around,
[01:14.40] I had to leave a little girl in Kingston Town.
[01:20.92] Sounds of laughter everywhere
[01:25.07] And the dancing girls sway to and fro
[01:29.18] I must declare my heart is there
[01:32.86] Though I've been from Maine to Mexico
[01:36.90] But I'm sad to say,
[01:40.15] I'm on my way,
[01:42.02] won't be back for many a day.
[01:45.64] My heart is down,
[01:47.03] my head is turning around,
[01:49.07] I had to leave a little girl in Kingston Town.
[01:57.20] Down the way, where the nights are gay,
[01:59.80] and the sun shines daily on the mountain top,
[02:04.28] I took a trip on a sailing ship,
[02:07.74] and when I reach Jamaica I made a stop.
[02:12.24] But I'm sad to say,
[02:15.48] I'm on my way,
[02:17.34] won't be back for many a day.
[02:21.01] My heart is down,
[02:22.63] my head is turning around,
[02:25.49] I had to leave a little girl in Kingston Town.
[02:30.44] Sad to say,
[02:31.52] I'm on my way,
[02:34.69] won't be back for many a day.
[02:37.97] My heart is down,
[02:39.66] my head is turning around,
[02:42.16] I had to leave a little girl in Kingston Town.
