sam cooke - jamaica farewell lyrics
down the way where the night are gay
and the sun shines dearly 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
i won’t be back for many a day
my heart is down, my heart is turning around
i had to leave a girl in kingston town
sounds of laughter everywhere
and the dancing girls swing to and fro
i must declare my love too is there
though i’ve from maine to mexico
but i’m sad to say i’m on my way
i won’t be back for many a days
my heart is down, my heart is turning around
i had to leave a girl in kingston town
down at the market you can hear
ladies crying out while on their heads they bear
[unverified] salt fish on ice and
the rum is fine any time of year
but i’m sad to say i’m on my way
i won’t be back for many a day
my heart is down, my heart is turning around
i had to leave a girl in kingston town
but i’m sad to say i’m on my way
i won’t be back for many a day
my heart is down, my heart is turning around
i had to leave a girl in kingston town
