Lyrics

Day O, me say day O,
Daylight come and me wan go home.
Day O, me say day O,
Daylight come and me wan go home.
Work all night till the morning come,
Daylight come and me wan go home.
Stack banana till the morning come,
Daylight come and me wan go home.
Come Mr. Tallyman and tally me banana,
Daylight come and me wan go home.
Me say, come Mr. Tallyman and tally me banana,
Daylight come and me wan go home.
Lift six, and seven, and eight, and bunch,
Daylight come and me wan go home.
Me say, six, and seven, and eight, and bunch,
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.
Beautiful bunch of ripe banana,
Daylight come and me wan go home.
A beautiful bunch of ripe banana,
Daylight come and me wan go home.
Six, and seven, and eight, and bunch,
Daylight come and me wan go home.
Me say, six, and seven, and eight, and bunch,
Daylight come and me wan go home.
Day, me say day 0,
Daylight come and me wan go home.
Day O, Day O,
Daylight come and me wan go home.
Come Mr. Tallyman and tally me banana,
Daylight come and me wan go home.
Me say, come Mr. Tallyman and tally me banana,
Daylight come and me wan go home.
Day O, Me say day O,
Daylight come and me wan go home.
Day O, Me say day O,
Daylight come and me wan go home.
