When I hear this. Beautiful song I really believe legends dont die am here wondering those who will listen to this song in 2050 alot will be surprised by its. Beauty but when that time comes let everyone knows that here lived great men and legends we saw them singing alive and they where amazing
I've listened to this poem more than i expected. beautiful rendition and cool music for the countryside. Live long baba and to Don Williams ,rest in peace
For sure Baba is such an enigma but he had a special message to Kenyans that we didn't decipher in time.......coz right know we are on our own, baba left his little girl......and the wolves are really feasting on her 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Matilda samateh from was a young lady I met and taught when i was in The Gambia .she sang the song lyrics in my hearing and made me fall in love wit the song and also cherish the beautiful memories I shared with her..I miss you Matilda
Don Williams has done an excellent version of this Harry Belafonte standard. I was in Kingston in 1969 when I was in the Navy and like the song the place was awesome and so the people. ;-]
Love how most of Don Williams songs are real life experiences. notably if you've spent a bit of time in the countryside. This one especially is legendary!
Singer was little far away But he will meeting many many jenaratipns and many many countries surprising singer never dying his voice more then France And Amarica eorld's SINGER find him pls. Thanks.
I always play this song in the garden when I am sad. This is a emotional song for me. It make me feel what is exactly saying in poem!😢😢😢😢😢 Beautiful work!
This song always reminds me of my late sister,she used to play it alot then I was only a little girl,miss you sis till we meet again,the legend Don Williams also followed later rip my people.
Baba you gone but you live a mark in my heart, for so beautiful song like this always touching my heart when ever i need time for myself to think and let it go.
"Jamaica Farewell" Down the way Where the nights are gay And the sun shines daily on the mountaintop I took a trip on a sailing ship And when I reached Jamaica I 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 Sounds of laughter everywhere And the dancing girls swing to and fro I must declare my heart is there Though I've been from Maine to Mexico 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 Down at the market you can hear Ladies cry out while on their heads they bear Ackee, rice, salt, fish are nice And the rum is fine any time o' year 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 Down the way Where the nights are gay And the sun shines daily on the mountaintop I took a trip on a sailing ship And when I reached Jamaica I 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 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.

Besides a wonderful voice, Don Williams actually sounds regretful. Beautiful version.
For sure,
He sounds as if he is regretting going back to Maine leaving Jamaica.

"Jamaica Farewell"
Down the way
Where the nights are gay
And the sun shines daily on the mountaintop
I took a trip on a sailing ship
And when I reached Jamaica I 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
Sounds of laughter everywhere
And the dancing girls swing to and fro
I must declare my heart is there
Though I've been from Maine to Mexico
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
Down at the market you can hear
Ladies cry out while on their heads they bear
Ackee, rice, salt, fish are nice
And the rum is fine any time o' year
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
Down the way
Where the nights are gay
And the sun shines daily on the mountaintop
I took a trip on a sailing ship
And when I reached Jamaica I 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
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.
Very good song
*my head is spinning around
I came to UA-cam this morning to do a different thing but this song has caught my fancy.Rest on don Willams.
If it wasn't Raila I wouldn't have listened to this song live long Raila Amollo
