Udo Jürgens - Jamaica Mama lyrics

[Udo Jürgens - Jamaica Mama lyrics]

On a visit down the Caribbean way
To be exact in Montego Bay
I chanced to see a pretty baby

A lovely pickney smile and I lost my heart
By the sea in Montego Bay
A beauty was she my little baby

Jamaica-Mama – uuh
You have a pretty daughter
And when I leave her – uuh
I cry livin`eye water

I didn`t want those days to end
I`d never known such happiness
I never told her that I soon
Will have to go – no, no

Düdüdü

I followed her up the mountain side


I went with her for a donkey ride
We ran and played, love was around me
And then one evening I wanted to say:
My plane will soon leave Montego Bay
But the glim in her eyes suddenly warned me

Jamaica-Mama – uuh
You have a pretty daughter
And when I leave her – uuh
I cry livin`eye water
I didn`t want those days to end
I`d never known such happiness

I never told her that I soon
Will have to go – no, no
Düdüdü i went to her Mama
But I couldn't find words
When I tried to tell her the truth
She said: My son – God go with you

Jamaica- Mama – uuh

I have to leave your daughter
Jamaica-Mama – uuh
And I cry livin' eye water
I didn't want those days to end
I`d never known such happiness
And that I fell in love so deep
I couldn't know – no, no

Düdüdü

And that I never will forget these days
I know

Düdüdü

And that I never will forget these days
I know
