I only see the sShaggy version, which is TOTALLY different. So I went on youtube and listeded to to the original version by Folkes Bros, but some times I could not understand what was being said. I listened to 2 or 3 other artists versions and they are slightly different, but not the same as the unintelligible original. So here is my mixed as close as possible to the original version, which i am learning and I like to sing and play on guitar.

OH CAROLINA——when possible lyrics are from FOLKES BROs Original Mento artist.

Oh Carolina (me want–a she me want**Yellowman version)
Oh Carolina
Oh Carolina honey darlin
Come back and make things right (you know for you me want***yellowman version)(why did you make me cry)–cannot understand original

Oh I’m so lonely
Yes I’m so lonely
Oh I’m so lonely Carolina
Come back and make things right(why did you leave that nightoriginal?)

CH
Carolina my-Darling
All my love for you–oo-oo
Carolina my-honey
You know I love only you-oo-oo

Oh Carolina
Oh Carolina
Oh Carolina from Jamaica
Come back and make things right(original)

Instrum

Repeat Chorus

Oh Carolina
Oh Carolina
Oh carolina grandbonita(?)
Come back and make things right
Oh Carolina grandbonita(?)
Come back and make things right
Oh Carolina from Jamaica(grandbonita?)
Come back and make things right

I have always loved the song, but had no clue it was so significant and didn’t know the lyrics.
