{title:Jamaica Farewell}
{st:Lord Burgess}
DAown the way, where the nDights are gay,
And the sAun shines dE7aily on the mAountain top,
I took a trip on a sDailing ship,
And when I reAached JaE7maica, I made a sAtop.

{C:Chorus:}
     But I'm sAad to say, I'm Don my way,
     WE7on't be back for mAany a day,
     My heart is down, my head is tDurning around,
     I had to lAeave a little gE7irl in Kingston tAown.

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.

     {C:Chorus.}

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.

     {C:Chorus.}
