By Irving Burgie
Down by the bay where the nights are gay And the sun shines daily on the mountain top. I took a trip on a sailing ship And when I reached Jamaica I made a stop.
Chorus: Well I’m sad to say I’m on my way (la la la la) 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 As the dancing girls sway to and fro. I must declare my heart is there Thought I’ve been from Maine to Mexico.
Repeat chorus.
In the market you can hear Ladies cry out while on their heads they bear Paddied rice, salt fish are nice And the rum is good any time of year.
Repeat chorus.

John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt That’s my name too! Whenever I go out, the people always shout, “Hey! John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt!” La, la, la, la, la, la, la.
Repeat verse, more quietly each time.

I’ve got the peace that passes understanding down in my heart! Where? Down in my heart! Where? Down in my heart! I’ve got the peace that passes understanding down in my heart! Where? Down in my heart to stay!
I’ve got the wonderful love of my blessed redeemer deep down in the depths of my heart! Where? Down in my heart! Where? Down in my heart! I’ve got the wonderful love of my blessed redeemer deep down in the depths of my heart! Where? Down in my heart to stay!
