[00:15.73]Down the way
[00:17.35]Where the nights are gay
[00:18.66]And the sun shines daily on the mountaintop
[00:22.02]I took a trip on a sailing ship
[00:24.66]And when I reached Jamaica I made a stop
[00:28.66]But I'm sad to say I'm on my way
[00:31.73]Won't be back for many a day
[00:34.98]My heart is down
[00:36.74]My head is turning around
[00:38.40]I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town
[00:55.53]Down at the market you can hear
[00:59.14]Ladies cry out while on their heads they bear
[01:05.48]Ackee, rice, saltfish are nice
[01:07.55]And the rum is fine any time of year
[01:08.33]But I'm sad to say I'm on my way
[01:10.04]Won't be back for many a day
[01:15.19]My heart is down
[01:16.55]My head is turning around
[01:18.15]I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town
[01:35.47]Sounds of laughter everywhere
[01:37.92]And the dancing girls swing to and fro
[01:41.31]I must declare my heart is there
[01:44.72]Though I've been from Maine to Mexico
[01:48.04]But I'm sad to say I'm on my way
[01:56.47]Won't be back for many a day
[01:59.13]My heart is down
[02:00.62]My head is turning around
[02:02.23]I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town
[02:19.72]Down the way
[02:21.18]Where the nights are gay
[02:22.22]And the sun shines daily on the mountaintop
[02:25.93]I took a trip on a sailing ship
[02:28.73]And when I reached Jamaica I made a stop
[02:30.38]But I'm sad to say I'm on my way
[02:31.06]Won't be back for many a day
[02:33.80]My heart is down
[02:36.04]My head is turning around
[02:37.49]I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town
[02:41.07]Sad to say I'm on my way
[02:43.78]Won't be back for many a day
[02:46.88]My heart is down
[02:48.31]My head is turning around
[02:50.13]I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town
