Jamaican folk music serves many different purposes for the people of that island. Its subjectmatter varies from the very serious (sickness and death) to the light and, sometimes, even silly.Evenin' Time is a happy song that shows the lively spirit of workers as they journey home evenafter working several days at the market. Because the journey home from the city takes such along time, these laborers usually found it necessary to cook and eat their food (bickle) before theyget home.
