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
