The Banana Boat Song Lyrics

Day-o, 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
Work all night till de mornin' come
Daylight come and me wanna go home
Stack banana till de mornin' come
Daylight come and me wanna go home

Come, Mister Tally Man, tally the banana
Daylight come and me wanna go home
Come, Mister Tally Man, tally the banana
Daylight come and me wanna go home

Six and seven and eight foot bunch
Daylight come and me wanna go home
Six and seven and eight foot bunch
Daylight come and me wanna go home

Say me day-o, day-o
Daylight come and me wan' go home
I sing, day-o, day-o
Daylight come and me wan' go home

A beautiful bunch o' ripe banana
Daylight come and me wanna go home
Say in der hide the deadly black tarantula
Daylight come and me wanna go home
Six and seven and eight foot bunch
Daylight come and me wanna go home
Six and seven and eight foot bunch
Daylight come and me wanna go home

Day-o, day-o
Daylight come and I wan' go home
Day-o, day-o
Daylight come and me wan' go home

Come, Mister Tally Man, tally the banana
Daylight come and me wan' go home
Come, Mister Tally Man, tally the banana
Daylight come and me wanna go home
Day-o, day-o
Daylight come and me wan' go home
Day-o, me say day-o
Daylight come and me wan' go home

Beautiful bunch o' ripe banana
Daylight come and me wan' go home
Me say der in hide the deadly black tarantula
Daylight come and me wanna go home

Me say day-o, day-o
Daylight come and me wan' go home
Day-o, day-o
Daylight come and me wan' go home

Day-o, day-o
Daylight come and me wan' go home
Day-o, day-o
Daylight come and me wan' go home

Day-o, day-o
Daylight come and me wan' go home
Day-o, day-o
