jamaica farewell - lord tanamo lyrics
[verse 1]
down the way where the nights are g*y
and the sun shines daily on the mountain top
i took a trip on a sailing ship
when i reached jamaica i made a stop
[chorus]
lord, i’m sorry to say i’m on my way
i 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
[verse 2]
down in the market you can hear ladies cry out
while on their heads they bear
ackee, rice, saltfish are nice
and the rum is fine any time of year
[chorus]
lord, i’m sorry to say i’m on my way
i won’t be back for many a day
my heart is down, my head is turning around
had to leave a little girl in kingston town
[verse 3]
sounds of laughter everywhere
while the dancing girl sways to and through
i must declare my heart is there
though i’ve been from maine to mexico
[chorus]
lord, i’m sorry to say i’m on my way
i won’t be back for many a day
my heart is down, my head is turning around
had to leave a little girl in kingston town
[verse 4]
down the way where the nights are g*y
and the sun shines daily on the mountain top
i took a trip on a sailing ship
when i reached jamaica i made a stop
[chorus]
lord, i’m sorry to say i’m on my way
i won’t be back for many a day
my heart is down, my head is turning around
had to leave a little girl in kingston town
