Jamaica Farewell - Caetano Veloso (卡耶塔诺.费洛索)

Down the way where the nights are gay

And the sun shines daily on the mountaintop

I look a trip on a sailling 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 arround

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

Akee rice salt fish 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 downs my head is turning around

I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town

Sounds of laughter every where

And the dancing girls swaying to and fro

I must declare my heart is there

Thoug 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 look a trip on a sailing ship

And when I reached

Jamaica I made a stop

But I'm said 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
