Down the
way where the night's all gay
And the sun shines daily on the mountaintop
I took a trip on a sailing ship
And when I reached
Jamaica, made a stop
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
She was doing the limbo
And when she went un der
She took me over
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
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!
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
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
I was doing the limbo, an d when I went un der,
it was all over.
Down the way where the nights are gay,
and the sun shines daily on the mountaintop,
I took a trip on a sailing ship,
but when I did the limbo, it was a flop,
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 in
