Down in Jamaica, they got lots of pretty women

Steal your money then they break your heart

Lonesome Sue, she's in love with ol' Sam

Take him from the fire into the frying pan On and on

She just keeps on trying

And she smiles

When she feels like crying

On and on, on and on, on and on Poor ol' Jimmy sits alone in the moonlight

He saw his woman kiss another man

So he takes a ladder, steals the stars from the sky

Puts on Sinatra and starts to cry On and on

He just keeps on trying

And he smiles

When he feels like crying

On and on, on and on, on and on When the first time is the last time

It can make you feel so bad

But if you know it, show it

Hold on tight, don't let her say, "Goodnight" I got the sun on my shoulders and my toes in the sand

My woman's left me for some other man

But I don't care, I'll just dream and stay tan

Toss up my heart to see where it lands On and on

I just keep on trying

And I smile

When I feel like dying

On and on, on and on, on and on

On and on, on and on, on and on

On and on, on and on, on and on
