Jamaica Farewell - Caetano Veloso
Down the way
Where the nights are gay
And the sun shines daily
on the mountaintop
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
Down at the market
you can hear
Ladies cry out while on their
heads they bear
Ackee rice salt fish are nice
And the rum is fine
any time o' year
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
swing to and fro
I must declare my heart is there
Though I've been from
Maine to Mexico
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
Down the way
Where the nights are gay
And the sun shines daily
on the mountaintop
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
