Jamaican Market Place

Market woman, taking all her goods to Kingston Market.
Market woman, on her way to the market.

1. Here comes a woman dressed in white
On her way to market, taking all her goods to sell people come from miles around
Market woman selling all her fish at Kingston market
Market woman on her way to the market

2. Another woman with fish to eat on her way to market
Baskets full so take your pick, you can bargain for your best price
Market woman, taking all her goods to Kingston,
Market woman on her way to the market

Some curry goat, beans and sugarcane, yes you can buy at market.
The Rastaman brings his goods to sell, you can buy ev'ryday
Doom, goat, beans and sugarcane, sugar, yes, buy at market
Man brings his goods to sell

Market woman singing all way home from Kingston market
Market woman on her way to the market
There goes the woman dressed in white on her way from market.
Singing joyf’lly all way home, she has sold all her goods today
Market woman, singing all way home from Kingston market.
Market woman, on her way from the market.
