1
Jamaica was the lovely one, I played her well
2
As we lay in the tall grass where the shadows fell
3
Hiding from the children, so they would not tell
4
We would stay there 'til her sister rang the evening bell
5
Jamaica, say you will
6
Help me find a way to fill these empty hours
7
Say you will come again tomorrow
8
The daughter of a captain on the rolling seas
9
She would stare across the water from the trees
10
Last time, he was home he held her on his knees
11
And said the next time, they would sail away just where they pleased
12
Jamaica, say you will
13
Help me find a way to fill these lifeless sails
14
And stay until my ships can find the sea
15
Jamaica was a sweet young one, I loved her true
16
She was a comfort and a mercy through and through
17
Hiding from this world together, next thing I knew
18
We had brought her things down to the bay, what could I do
19
Jamaica, say you will
20
Help me find a way to fill these sails
21
And we will sail until our waters have run dry
