Down the way where the nights are gay and the sun shines daily on the mountain's top. I took a trip on a sailing ship and when I reached Jamaica. I made a stop. And 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've had to leave a little girl in the Kingston town.
Sounds of laughter every where and the dancing girl swinging two and fro. I must declare my head is there though I been from maine to Mexico. And 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've had to leave a little girl in the Kingston town. Down at the market you can hear ladies cry out while on their heads they bear. Akkisai sort fish are nice and the rhum are fine every time a year. And 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've had to leave a little girl in the Kingston town.

Have you ever seen a rainbow
Or a garden blooming bright Heard the shuffle of a thousand feet And drums from morning 'til night ? Come we go down, come we go down Come we go down to Kingston market Come we go down, come we go down Down to Kingston market Get your tamarind and sour sop, Mangoes and casaba, Bread fruit okra pigeon peas, Curry goat and guava Come we go down, come we go down Come we go down to Kingston market Come we go down, come we go down Down to Kingston market Do you know a brown skin maiden With sunshine in her eyes ? Heard the swallow and the humming bird Sing happy as she goes by ? Come we go down, come we go down Come we go down to Kingston market Come we go down, come we go down Down to Kingston market Have you seen the ghost of Morgan Or heard a tale you hadn't ought to ? Have you welcomed the coming dawn With a rum an' coconut water Come we go down, come we go down Come we go down to Kingston market Come we go down, come we go down Down to Kingston market |

Yes it's so long since I've been home
Seems like there's no place to roam Well I've sailed around the Horn I've been from San Jose up to Baffin Bay And I've rode out many a storm Angelina, Angelina, please bring down your concertina And play a welcome for me 'cause I'll be coming home from sea Well I've heard the bawdy tunes I've been in honky tonk saloons I took my liquor by the vat Well I stayed on call for a rousing brawl Home was where I hung my hat Angelina, Angelina, please bring down your concertina And play a welcome for me 'cause I'll be coming home from sea Now I've courted many a girl I've been in ports all around the world But my rambling days are done I've been from Curacao up to Tokyo And I've found there's only one And she is Angelina, Angelina, please bring down your concertina And play a welcome for me 'cause I'll be coming home from sea |

Water come to me eye Every time I'm away from Liza Water come to me eye REFRAIN: Come back Liza, come back girl Wipe the tear from my eye Come back Liza, come back girl Wipe the tear from my eye I remember when love was new Water come to me eye There was one, but now there's two Water come to me eye REFRAIN: Come back Liza, come back girl... When the evening starts to fall Water come to me eye I need to hear my Liza's call Water come to me eye REFRAIN: Come back Liza, come back girl... Standing there in the marketplace Water come to me eye Soon I'll feel her warm embrace Water come to me eye REFRAIN: Come back Liza, come back girl... In the shadow I stand a while Water come to me eye Soon I'll see my Liza's smile Water come to me eye REFRAIN: Come back Liza, come back girl... Every time I'm away from Liza Water come to me eye Every time I'm away from Liza Water come to me eye REFRAIN: Come back Liza, come back girl... |
