The Byrds Jamaica Say You Willwritten by Jackson Browne
Jamaica was the lovely one I played her well
As we lay in the tall grass where the shadows fell
Hiding from the children so they would not tell
We would stay there untill her sister rang the evening bell
Jamaica say you will help me find a way to fill these empty hours
Say you will come again tomorrow
The daughter of a captain on the rolling seas
She would stare across the water from the tree
Last time he was home he held her on his knees
And said the next time they would sail away just where they please
Jamaica say you will help me find a way to fill these lifeless sails
Stay untill my ships can find the sea
Jamaica was a sweet young one I loved her true
She was a comfort and a mercy thru and thru
Hiding from this world together next thing I knew
They had brought her things down to the bay what could I do
Jamaica say you will help me find a way to fill these sails and then
we'll
Sail untill our waters have run dry
