harry belafonte - jamaica farewell (alt version) lyrics

down the way where the nights are g-y
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
down at the market you can hear
ladies cry out while on their heads they bear
ackee rice salt fish are nice
and the rum are 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
sounds of laughter everywhere
and the dancing girl 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’ve had to leave a little girl in the kingston town
down the way where the nights are g-y
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
