[00:00.00]Jamaica Farewell (Remastered) - Harry Belafonte
[00:14.92]Down the way where the nights are gay
[00:17.66]And the sun shines daily on the mountaintop
[00:20.85]
[00:21.73]I took a trip on a sailing ship
[00:24.29]But when i reached jamaica i made her stop
[00:28.53]Chorus:Now i'm sad to say
[00:29.86]I'm on my way
[00:31.55]I won't be back for many a day
[00:34.74]My heart is down
[00:35.98]My head is turning around
[00:37.66]I had to leave a little girl in kingston town
[00:41.56]
[00:55.11]Sounds of laughter everywhere
[00:57.98]And the dancing girls sway to and fro
[01:01.54]I must declare my heart is there
[01:04.54]Though i have been from maine to mexico
[01:07.79]Chorus:Still i'm sad to say
[01:09.69]I'm on my way
[01:11.12]
[01:11.68]I won't be back for many a day
[01:14.74]My heart is down
[01:16.05]My head is turning around
[01:17.74]I had to leave a little girl in kingston town
[01:21.23]
[01:35.22]Down at the market you can hear
[01:37.78]Ladies cry out while on their heads they bear
[01:41.08]
[01:41.77]Ackev rice salt fish are nice
[01:44.21]Oh the rum is fine anytime of year
[01:47.77]Chorus:Now i'm sad to say
[01:49.44]I'm on my way
[01:51.62]I won't be back for many a day
[01:54.37]My heart is down
[01:55.68]My head is turning around
[01:57.55]I had to leave a little girl in kingston town
[02:00.67]
[02:15.17]Down the way where the nights are gay
[02:17.41]And the sun shines daily on the mountaintop
[02:20.67]
[02:21.36]I took a trip on a sailing ship
[02:24.23]But when i reached jamaica i made her stop
[02:27.35]Chorus:Now i'm sad to say
[02:29.32]I'm on my way
[02:31.13]I won't be back for many a day
[02:34.25]My heart is down
[02:35.43]My head is turning around
[02:37.12]I had to leave a little girl in kingston town
[02:41.12]Chorus:Now i'm sad to say
[02:42.42]I'm on my way
[02:44.30]I won't be back for many a day
[02:47.17]My heart is down
[02:48.42]My head is turning around
[02:50.30]I had to leave a little girl in kingston town
