Jamaica Farewell - Remastered

Down the way where the nights are gay
 And the sun shines daily on the mountaintop
 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
 ♪
 Sounds of laughter everywhere
 And the dancing girls swing to and fro
 I must declare my heart is there
 Though I've been from Maine 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
 ♪
 Down at the market you can hear
 Ladies cry out while on their heads they bear
 Ackee, rice, saltfish are nice
 And the rum is fine any time a 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
