Day-o
Day-o
Daylight come and me wan' go home
Day
Me say day, me say day, me say day, me say day, me say day-o
Daylight come and me wan' go home
Work all night on a drink of rum
(Daylight come and me wan' go home)
Stack banana till the morning come
(Daylight come and me wan' go home)
Come Mister tally man, tally me banana
(Daylight come and me wan' go home)
Come Mister tally man, tally me banana
(Daylight come and me wan' go home)
Lift six foot, seven foot, eight foot bunch
(Daylight come and me wan' go home)
Six foot, seven foot, eight foot bunch
(Daylight come and me wan' go home)
Day
Me say day-o
(Daylight come and me wan' go home)
Day
Me say day, me say day, me say day, me say day, me say day-o
(Daylight come and me wan' go home)
A beautiful bunch of ripe banana
(Daylight come and me wan' go home)
Hide the deadly black tarantula
(Daylight come and me wan' go home)
Lift six foot, seven foot, eight foot bunch
(Daylight come and me wan' go home)
Six foot, seven foot, eight foot bunch
(Daylight come and me wan' go home)
Day
Me say day-o
(Daylight come and me wan' go home)
Day
Me say day, me say day, me say day, me say day, me say day-o
(Daylight come and me wan' go home)
Come Mister tally man, tally me banana
(Daylight come and me wan' go home)
Come Mister tally man, tally me banana
(Daylight come and me wan' go home)
Day-o
Day-o
(Daylight come and me wan' go home)
Day
Me say day, me say day, me say day, me say day, me say day-o
(Daylight come and me wan' go home)
