With 2.8 million people, it is the third most populous anglophone country in the Americas, after the United States and Canada. It remains a Commonwealth realm in concert with the Monarchy of Jamaica holding ultimate executive power, where Queen Elizabeth II is the current head of state and Queen of Jamaica.Kingston is the country's largest city and the capital.

Put on your sun tan lotion and block the sun
'Cause you're in Jamaica
Sensational quality from the greens to the tapestry
South central the beaches are so tropical
I wish I could go there and see the sites
And buy some things In Jamaica
You don't have to go far to find
So many friendly faces
And the beaches are dangerous after midnight
After midnight
Put on your sun tan lotion and block the sun
'Cause you're in Jamaica
Sensational quality from the greens to the tapestry
South central the beaches are so tropical
So tropical
So tropical
So tropical

This is modern life and I've got a patience, sat by temptation
Said "oh, such an extraordinary thing"
[X2]
Fast asleep, in a suit, by the fire
Empty space, close my eyes, we expire
We can let it go cause summer girlfriends, house in Jamaica
Said "oh, we've got a drink we can bring"
This is modern life and I've got a patience, sat by temptation
Said "oh, such an extraordinary thing"
[X2]
How'd we come here? How'd we find this place on our own?
Smell that burning? Must be someone who calls this home
Guess I'll ask her later, guess I'll ask her alone

Jamaica, oh Jamaica,
Little island shining in the sea,
There's a dark-eyed girl who's waiting,
Yes, she's waiting just for me.
Oh, in Jamaica, oh, Jamaica,
Where the gentle trade winds blow,
Once I'll hold her in my arms again,
I'll never ever ever ever let her go.
Never more will I travel
And no more will I roam,
Captain, weigh your anchor chain
And set your sails for home,
To Jamaica, oh Jamaica,
Little island I've been dreaming of,
I can't wait to reach that golden beach
When the world gets too much to carry
And when life becomes too bizarre
And all of my friends seem ordinary
As compared to the Rastafar
No, I can't wait to see the city
Have a drink inside my favorite bar
So if you leave me, that's a pity
Maybe I'm better off by far
Oh, Jamaica
Hold me
Come let your arms enfold me
Forever and ever
Someone told me
Love grows
Here in Jamaica
Leaving you, how could I ever
As I ran for the ocean ferry
Well I knew I'd said my last goodbye
And now my life seems so contrary
As the stars fill the evening sky
Oh, Jamaica
Hold me
Come let your arms enfold me
Forever and ever
Someone told me
Love grows
Here in Jamaica
Jamaica, Oh Oh Jamaica, Jamaica
Little Island Shining In The Sea
There’s A Dark Eyed Girl Who’s Waitin’, Waitin’
Yes, She’s Awaitin’ Just For Me Oh Oh Oh Oh
In Jamaica, Oh Oh Jamaica, Jamaica
Where The Dandle Trade Winds Blow
Once I Hold Her In My My My My My Arms Again
I Never Ever Ever Ever Let Her Go
Never More I’ll Travel, Jamaica
And No More Oh No No More, No More Will I Roam, Jamaica
Captain, Now Would You Wreck The Chain
And Set Your Sail For Home, Oh Oh Oh Oh
At Jamaica, Oh Oh Jamaica, Jamaica
Little Island I’ve Been Dreaming Of
I Can’t Wait To Reach That Golden Beach
And The Little Dark Eyed Girl I Love
Do You Read Me What I Say, Jamaica
Oh Oh Jamaica, Oh Oh Jamaica
Oh Oh Jamaica, Oh Oh Jamaica
Oh Oh Jamaica, Oh Oh Jamaica
Sie war ein Traum
superblond.
Wir haben letztes Jahr nicht nur gesonnt!
Gleich nächsten Sommer
so gab sie ihr Wort
selbes Hotel
wir treffen uns dort!
Wo es aufgehört hat
da fangen wir an
versprach sie und hauchte: "Bis dann!"
Und dann dies' Telegramm.
bist du denn verrückt?!
Du hast dich südwärts verdrückt!
Jamaica! Du bist längst in Jamaica!
Was willst du in Jamaica?
Was ist da denn schon los?!
Jamaica! Ich flieg' nie nach Jamaica
ist das Wetter auch schön da!
Was gibt's da denn schon groß?!
Ich geb' es zu
es ist kalt
drei Wochen Regen
das ist noch geprahlt!
Immer nur Fernsehn
macht mich nicht an
irgendwas ist am Süden wohl dran!
Während ich fast erfrier'
da aalst du dich entspannt
mit wildfremden Männern am Strand!
Ab ins Reisebüro
meinen Schirm laß ich hier
und bin schon morgen bei dir!
Jamaica! Ich fahre auch nach Jamaica!
Schließlich war ich noch nie da!
Es wird Zeit irgendwann!
Jamaica! Ich flieg' gleich nach Jamaica
denn sonst bist du allein da
und du langweilst dich dann!
Jamaica! Ich fahre auch nach Jamaica!
Schließlich war ich noch nie da!
Es wird Zeit irgendwann!
Jamaica! Ich flieg' gleich nach Jamaica
denn sonst bist du allein da

When will these dark clouds disappear from view
When will the sun begin to shine
When will I once again be near to you
When will I know for sure you're mine
Dreaming of those Jamaican nights
Longing to hold you
Jamaica take me away
Take me away with you
Jamaica, I'm wasting away
Take me away with you
Jamaica take me away
Take me away with you
Jamaica, I'm wasting away
Take me away with you
When will these dark days disappear again
When will I finally see the light
How long must I wait
To have you here my friend
I want to be with you tonight
Dreaming of those Jamaican nights
Longing to hold you
