Telling old frown town goodbye
Telling old frown town goodbye
Found a smilin' island town
And I'm a goin' down
Cause there ain't no frowns round Nassau Town

The willow weeps and envys me
Willow weeps and envys me
Cause he's got roots here and cannot leave
And mine are bound for the ground of Nassau Town

Wind blow through my lonesome clothes

So so long I'm Bahama bound
So long I'm Bahama bound
Cause my heart's already down
Walking around and a settling down in Nassau Town
Learnin' to smile and live and love in Nassau Town
