Harry Belafonte - Banana Boat Song (Day-O) lyrics

rate me

Day-o, Day-ay-ay-o

Daylight come and me wan' go home

Day, me say day, me say day, me say day

Me say day, me say day-ay-ay-o

Daylight come and me wan' go home

Work all night on a drink a' rum

Daylight come and me wan' go home

Stack banana till the mornin' come

Daylight come and me wan' go home

Come, Mister tally man, tally me banana

Daylight come and me wan' go home

Come, Mister tally man, tally me banana

Daylight come and me wan' go home

It's 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-ay-ay-o

Daylight come and me wan' go home

Day, me say day, me say day, me say day...

Daylight come and me wan' go home

A beautiful bunch a' ripe banana

Daylight come and me wan' go home

Highly deadly black tarantula

Daylight come and me wan' go home

It's 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-ay-ay-o

Daylight come and me wan' go home

Day, me say day, me say day, me say day...

Daylight come and me wan' go home

Come, Mister tally man, tally me banana

Daylight come and me wan' go home

Come, Mister tally man, tally me banana

Daylight come and me wan' go home

Day-o, day-ay-ay-o

Daylight come and me wan' go home

Day, me say day, me say day, me say day

Me say day, me say day-ay-ay-o

Daylight come and me wan' go home
