Belafonte Harry Miscellaneous Jamaica Farewell 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 way Won't be back, for many a day My heart is down, my head is turning around I had to leave a little girl in Kingston Town. (Instrumental Break #1) Sounds of laughter you can hear As the dancing girls sway to and fro I must declare, my heart is there Though I've been from Main to Mexico, But I'm, sad to say, I'm on my way Won't be back, for many a day My heart is down, my head is turning around I had to leave a little girl in Kingston Town. (Instrumental Break #2) Down at the market, you can hear Ladies cry out, while on their heads they bear Aqui rice, salt fish are nice And the rum is fine, any time of year. But I'm, sad to say, I'm on my way Won't be back, for many a day My heart is down, my head is turning around I had to leave a little girl in Kingston Town. (Instrumental Break #3) 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 way Won't be back, for many a day My heart is down, my head is turning around I had to leave a little girl in Kingston Town. Sad to say, I'm on my way Won't be back, for many a day My heart is down, my head is turning around I had to leave a little girl in Kingston Town. |
