1. Down the way where the lights are gay and the sun shines daily on the mountain top.

2. Down a the market you can hear ladies cry out what on the heads their bear.

3. Sounds of laughter everywhere, and the dancing girls sway to and fro.

1. I took a trip an a sailing ship and when we reached Jamaica, I made a stop.

2. Ackee, rice, salt and fish are nice and the rum tastes fine any time of year

3. I must declare my heart is there, though I have 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.
