Artist/Band: Ray Conniff
Lyrics for Song: Jamaica Farewell
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Ray Conniff



Down the way where the nights are gay

And the sun shines daily on the mountaintop

I took a trip on a sailing ship

But when I reached Jamaica I made her stop



Now I'm sad to say

I'm on my way (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



Sounds of laughter everywhere

And the dancing girls sway to and fro

I must declare my heart is there

Though I have been from Maine to Mexico



Still I'm sad to say

I'm on my way (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



Down at the market you can hear

Ladies cry out while on their heads they bear



Ackev rice, salt fish are nice

Oh the rum is fine anytime of year



Now I'm sad to say

I'm on my way (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



Down the way where the nights are gay

And the sun shines daily on the mountaintop

I took a trip on a sailing ship

But when I reached Jamaica I made her stop



Now I'm sad to say

I'm on my way (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

I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town

I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town



"On my way Harry. Holy cow. I don't know!"
