| [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 |
