Oh Jamaica

Oh Jamaica, oh Jamaica
Oh Jamaica, you're always on my mind
Oh Jamaica, oh Jamaica
Oh Jamaica, you’re always on my mind

Jamaica, men have called you since Columbus sailed the shores
From John Hawkins to Henry Morgan and many more
They all loved you for your beauty and your wealth
But cared nothing for your welfare or your health
Now you're a woman that has fallen in the dust
But your children will help you, because they must

Oh Jamaica, oh Jamaica
Oh Jamaica, you're always on my mind

[?] from Kingston to Mo Bay
Discontentment is the order of the day
And like your sisters that are in the Caribbean
Disaffection from rejection can be seen
Your many lovers were deceivers from the start
Now your sons and daughters are grieved to the heart

Oh Jamaica, oh Jamaica
Oh Jamaica, you’re always on my mind
Oh Jamaica, oh Jamaica
Oh Jamaica, you're always on my mind
