1. Down the way where the lights a gay
C G C
and the sun shines daily on the mountain top.

I took a trip an a sailing ship
C G C
and when we reached Jamaica, I made a stop.
C G
But I`m sad to say, I`m on my way,
G C
won`t be back for many a day,
C F
my heart is down, my head is turning around,
C G C
I had to leave a little girl in Kingston Town.

and the rum tastes fine any time of year. + CHORUS
