Down the way 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
Sounds of laughter everywhere And the dancing girls swaying to and fro
I must declare that my heart is there Though I've been from Maine to Mexico
Down at the market you can hear Ladies cry out while on their head they bear
Ackie rice and salt fish is nice And the rum is good any time of year (sing365)
"Jamaica Farewell" is a calypso about the beauties of the West Indian Islands.
