Sparrow’s visit of Jamaica, ‘The Isle Of Springs’, during the month of June 1963, has left him with very pleasant and joyful reminiscences of the love, warmth and hospitality of its people.

[Verse 1]
I had such a lovely stay
In Kingston Town in the month of May
From since we land and we pass immigration
Look at confusion, rum punch in meh hand
[Verse 2]
I drink one and beg for one more
But when ah catch mehself, I drink about four
Meh head start to spin, I ain't know where ah going
But the Ladies Room is the first place I stumble in
[Verse 3]
From then we started to fête
Bacchanal I'll never forget
Girls so lovely, kissing me, calling me "Honey
Sing a song for we and let we spree"
[Verse 4]
We sing at Sheraton and Carib next day
Coffee's Place and Montego Bay
Old Spanish Town, back to Myrtle Bank in Kingston
Big and small, wе really had a ball
[Verse 5]
Flamingo crowd was very happy
Regal Palacе and the University
I met Sir Alexander, sang for him in his chambers
And is Mandeville we had to go after
[Verse 6]
So we hope you've enjoyed our show
Children all, now it's time to go
Honest and true we don't want to leave you
But until we meet again
'Til we meet again
Bye-bye!
