Chubby Checker * Track #9 On Limbo Party

Jamaica Farewell Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Down the way where the nights are gay
And the sun shines daily on the mountain top
I took a trip on a sailin' ship
And when I reached Jamaica made a stop

[Chorus]
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

[Post-Chorus]
She was doing the Limbo
And when she went under
She took me over

[Verse 2]
I saw her Limbo and go so low
That my heart said, "Oh", I went in a trance
I took a chance on this crazy dance
And when I learned to Limbo found romance

[Chorus]
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
Sing me

[Bridge]
La, la, la-la-la-la, la, la-la
La, la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La, la, la-la-la-la, la-la
La, la-la-la, la-la-la-la

[Chorus]
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

[Post-Chorus]
I was doing the Limbo
And when I went under
It was all over

[Verse 3]
Down the way where the nights are gay
And the sun shines daily on the mountain top
I took a trip on a sailing ship
But when I did the Limbo was a flop

[Chorus]
So, 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
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
