Intro:                        
 
 
 
    Down the way, where the n  ights are gay,
And the s  un shines daily on the m  ountain top,
    I took a trip on a s  ailing ship,
And when I r  eached Jamaica, I m  ade a stop. But I'm
  Sad to say, I'm o  n my way,
    Won't be back for m  any a day,
My h  eart is down; my head is t  urning around,
I had to l  eave a little girl in K  ingston town.
 
                       
Sounds of laughter everywhere,
And the dancing girls sway 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 at the market, you can hear,
Ladies cry out while on their heads they bear,
Aki rice, swordfish are nice,
And the rum is fine any time of 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.
 
                       
Down the way, where the nights are gay,
And the sun shines daily on the mountain top,
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.
 
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.
