Banana Boat Song Lyrics

Day-o, day-o
Daylight come and we wan' go home
Day, is a day, is a day, is a day
is a day, is a day-o
Daylight come and we wan' go home
Work all night on a drink of rum
Daylight come and we wan' go home
Stack banana till the mornin' come
Daylight come and we wan' go home

Come, Mister tally man, tally me banana
Daylight come and we wan' go home
Come, Mister tally man, tally me banana
Daylight come and we wan' go home

Lift six foot, seven foot, eight foot bunch
Daylight come and we wan' go home
Six foot, seven foot, eight foot bunch
Daylight come and we wan' go home
Day, is a day-o
Daylight come and we wan' go home
Day, is a day, is a day, is a day...
Daylight come and we wan' go home

A beautiful bunch o' ripe banana
Daylight come and we wan' go home
Hide the deadly black tarantula
Daylight come and we 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 we wan' go home
Day, is a day-o
Daylight come and we wan' go home
Day, is a day, is a day, is a day...
Daylight come and we wan' go home

Come, Mister tally man, tally me banana
Daylight come and we wan' go home
Come, Mister tally man, tally me banana
Daylight come and we wan' go home

Day-o, day-o
Daylight come and we wan' go home
Day, is a day, is a day, is a day
is a day, is a day-o
Daylight come and we wan' go home
