I'm going home to the town where I was born
Where little children laughed as they sang
A happy song in the little town of Ceylon,Ceylon City, Ceylon City
Ceylon City, Ceylon CityI've got a boat, I hope it's still afloat
With rusty sails and an old wooden oar
It goes along in the little town of CeylonCeylon City, Ceylon City
Ceylon City, Ceylon CityMy daddy will be waiting there
My sister will be combing down her silver hairMy mamma will be waiting there
Serving lunch to my brother, but he's nowhereMy daddy will be waiting there
My sister will be combing down her silver hairMy mamma will be waiting there
Serving lunch to my brother, but he's nowhereCeylon City, Ceylon City
Ceylon City, Ceylon City
Ceylon CityMy daddy will be waiting
My sister will be combing
My mamma will be serving
My brother will be hidingMy daddy will be waiting
