[00:19.24]Down the day where the nights are gay
[00:22.33]And the sun shines daily on the mountain top
[00:28.24]I took a trip on a sailing ship
[00:31.12]And when I reached Jamaica I made a stop
[00:35.81]But I'm sad to say I'm on my way
[00:40.93]Won't be back for many a day
[00:44.90]My heart is down, my head is turning around
[00:49.10]I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town
[00:54.40]
[00:57.42]Sounds of laughter everywhere
[01:00.42]And the dancing girls sway to and fro
[01:05.97]I must declare my heart is there
[01:09.52]Though I've been from Maine to Mexico
[01:14.10]But I'm sad to say I'm on my way
[01:19.15]Won't be back for many a day
[01:23.21]My heart is down, my head is turning around
[01:27.71]I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town
[01:53.95][01:32.27]
[01:54.34]Down the market you can hear
[01:57.32]Ladies cry out while on their heads they bear
[02:02.18]`Akey' rice, salt fish are nice
[02:05.77]And the rum is fine any time of year
[02:10.42]But I'm sad to say I'm on my way
[02:15.07]Won't be back for many a day
[02:19.36]My heart is down, my head is turning around
[02:23.86]I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town
[02:46.98][02:28.18]
[02:29.62][02:37.91]My heart is down, my head is turning around
[02:42.10][02:32.75]I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town
