Harry Belafonte - "day-O" lyrics

Day-o, day-ay-ay-o
Daylight come and he wan' go home
Daylight come and he wan' go home
Day, he say day, he say day, he say day, he say day, he say day-ay-ay-o

Work all night on a drink a'rum
(Daylight come and he wan' go home)
Stack banana till thee morning come

(Daylight come and he wan' go home)
Come, Mr. Tally Mon, tally me banana
(Daylight come and he wan' go home)
Come, Mr. Tally Mon, tally me banana
(Daylight come and he wan' go home)

It's six foot, seven foot, eight foot, BUNCH!
Six foot, seven foot, eight foot, BUNCH!
(Daylight come and he wan' go home)

Day, he say day-ay-ay-o
(Daylight come and he wan' go home)

Day, he say day, he say day, he say day, he say day, he say day
(Daylight come and he wan' go home)
(Daylight come and he wan' go home)

(Daylight come and he wan' go home)
Hide thee deadly black tarantula
A beautiful bunch a'ripe banana
(Daylight come and he wan' go home)

(Daylight come and he wan' go home)
It's six foot, seven foot, eight foot, BUNCH!
Six foot, seven foot, eight foot, BUNCH!

(Daylight come and he wan' go home)
Day, he say day-ay-ay-o
(Daylight come and he wan' go home)
Day, he say day, he say day, he say day, he say day, he say day

(Daylight come and he wan' go home)
Come, Mr. Tally Mon, tally me banana

(Daylight come and he wan' go home)
(Daylight come and he wan' go home)
Come, Mr. Tally Mon, tally me banana

Day-o, day-ay-ay-o
(Daylight come and he wan' go home)
Day, he say day, he say day, he say day, he say day, he say day-ay-ay-o
(Daylight come and he wan' go home)
