Day-O (The Banana Boat Song) - Live
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 'til the mornin' come
(Daylight come and me wan' go home)
Come, Mr. Tally Man, tally me banana
(Daylight come and me wan' go home)
Me say come, Mr. Tally Man, tally me banana
(Daylight come and me wan' go home)
Lift six hand, seven hand, eight hand bunch
(Daylight come and me wan' go home)
Me say six hand, seven hand, eight hand 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
(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 hand, seven hand, eight hand bunch
(Daylight come and me wan' go home)
Me say six hand, seven hand, eight hand 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 (daylight come and me wan' go home)
Come, Mr. Tally Man, tally me banana
(Daylight come and me wan' go home)
Me say come, Mr. 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
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 'til the mornin' come
(Daylight come and me wan' go home)
Come, Mr. Tally Man, tally me banana
(Daylight come and me wan' go home)
Me say come, Mr. Tally Man, tally me banana
(Daylight come and me wan' go home)
Lift six hand, seven hand, eight hand bunch
