Day-o, day-o

Daylight come and me wan' go home
Work all night, gonna drink our 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)

(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

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, a ripe banana
(Daylight come and me wan' go home)
I seek deadly lacked a launch-ra
(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 Mr. Tally Man, tally me banana
(Daylight come and me wan' go home)
Come Mr. Tally Man, tally me banana

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)
