Jamaica Farewell

[01:54.55][00:07.17]album:into white

[00:12.67][01:46.76]carly simon-jamaica farewell

down the day 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

[00:55.05]

sounds of laughter everywhere

and the dancing girls sway 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

[01:39.34]

down the market you can hear

ladies cry out while on their heads they bear

`akey' 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

[02:44.52]i had to leave a little girl in kingston town

[02:41.64]
