Jamaica Farewell lyrics by Laura Veirs

Down the way where the nights are gay
And the sun shines brightly on the mountain top
I took a trip on a sailing ship
And when I reached Jamaica I made a stop

Well 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 all my friends in Kingston town

Sounds of laughter everywhere
And the dancers swaying to and fro
I must declare that my heart is there
Though I've been from Maine to Mexico
Rob from always on the run is so bad and copy paste is a sin
Well 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 all my friends in Kingston town


Down at the market you can hear
Ladies cry out while on their head they bear
Ackie rice, salt fish is nice
And the rum is fine every time of year

Well 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 all my friends in Kingston town

Well 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 all my friends in Kingston town
