Day-o, day-o<br>
Daylight come and<br>
Me wan go home<br>
<br>
Day, he say..<br>
(Man, I`m gonna have to ask<br>
You not to shout like that)<br>
Well..(it`s like right in my ear)<br>
<br>
It goes with the song<br>
(Yeah, but don`t holler<br>
In my ear, man)<br>
<br>
Well, it`s authentic Calypso<br>
(Yeah, but try standing<br>
Next to me, man)<br>
<br>
Well, the shout go<br>
With the bongo drum<br>
(Not my bongo drums, man<br>
I mean, move away)<br>
<br>
Well, I don`t see why<br>
(No, no, no, stand over<br>
Next to the guitar, man)<br>
<br>
He sent me over here<br>
(Yeah, well, then sing soft, man<br>
You know, I mean like, wow)<br>
<br>
Ok, day...(It`s too loud, man)<br>

Me say day, me say day<br>
Me say day-o, daylight come<br>
And me wan go home<br>

On a drink of rum<br>

The morning come<br>

Cause the whole is like<br>
Bugging me, anyhow)<br>
