Lyrics

Yea mon There was once a friend of mine Who wanted to go back home Jamaica was where he lived And he felt so alone So he said to me one day "My friend I must leave here soon I must smell the warm sea air, and see the dropping moon" So I say, "So Jah say, so Jah say, so Jah say" So I said to him My friend why you wanna go back there Kingston is very bad Revolution is in the air But he said to me my friend My woman she needs me now And I need to see her face And feel her body brown So Jah say (when you going back to Kingston town) So Jah say (when you going back to Kingston town) So Jah say (when you going back to Kingston town) So Jah say (when you going back to Kingston town) Island girl Im coming home To be with you Where I belong So Jah say So Jah say So Jah say Well my friend he did go back And now hes dead and gone The police they shot him dead Said he was doing wrong He was talking in the streets The words of Bustanmante But there was no Marcus Garvey There to set him free So Jah say (when you going back to Kingston town) So Jah say (when you going back to Kingston town) So Jah say (when you going back to Kingston town) So Jah say (when you going back to Kingston town) Island girl Im coming home To be with you Where I belong So Jah say (when you going back to Kingston town) So Jah say (when you going back to Kingston town) So Jah say (when you going back to Kingston town) So (when you going back to Kingston town) So Jah say (when you going back to Kingston town) So Jah say (when you going back to Kingston town) So Jah say (when you going back to Kingston town) So Jah say (when you going back to Kingston town) Eh Eh
