letra de west indies blues - ukulele "bob" williams

[verse 1]
got my trunk and grip all packed
steampship, i’m gwine to take her
goodbye dear old new york town
i’m gwine back to jamaica
when i get on the other side
i’ll hang around the waters
make my livin’ sure’s you born
divin’ for the quarters

[chorus]
gwine home, won’t be long
gwine home sure’s you born
gwine home, won’t be long
’cause i’ve got no time to lose
got no time to lose
gwine home, i can’t wait
gwine home, can’t you see i’m late
gwine home, i can’t wait
’cause i’ve got the west indies blues
i’ve got the west indies blues

[verse 2]
i quit the bestest job in town
runnin’ elevator
told my boss man in new york
i’d be back soon or later
when i come back to this great land
you’d better watch me harvey
i’se gwine to be one great big man
like my friend marcus garvey
[chorus]
gwine home
gwine home
gwine home
’cause i’ve got no time to lose
gwine home
gwine home
gwine home, i can’t wait
’cause i’ve got the west indies blues
i’ve got the west indies blues

[verse 3]
when i get on the other side
if the queen i have to face her
tell her i don’t like it over here
’cause they call me the monkey chaser
i stay up the whole night through
i don’t need more slumber
i will try to figure out
how to catch [?] number

[chorus]
gwine home, won’t be long
gwine home sure’s you born
gwine home, won’t be long
’cause i’ve got no time to lose
gwine home, i can’t wait
gwine home, man, can’t you see i’m late
gwine home, i can’t wait
’cause i’ve got the west indies blues
[verse 4]
came over here on a banana ship
i thought that was fine
i’ve got plenty of money now
gwine back on the black star line
if i die, i don’t want no one
to call an undertaker
throw my body in the deep blue sea
i’d float back to jamaica
