Day O Banana Boat Song - Harry Belafonte

Day oh, day oh

(Till I come and me wanna go home)

Day is a day, is a day, is a day, is a day, is a day oh

(Till I come and me wanna go home)

Work all night, gonna drink our rum

(Till I come and me wanna go home)

Stack banana till the morning come

(Till I come and me wanna go home)

Come Mister Tally Man, tally me banana

(Till I come and me wanna go home)

Come Mister Tally Man, tally me banana

(Till I come and me wanna go home)

Lift six foot, seven foot, eight foot bunch

(Till I come and me wanna go home)

Six foot, seven foot, eight foot bunch

(Till I come and me wanna go home)

Day is a day oh

(Till I come and me wanna go home)

Day is a day, is a day, is a day, is a day

(Till I come and me wanna go home)

A beautiful bunch, a ripe banana

(Till I come and me wanna go home)

I seek deadly lacked a launch-ra

(Till I come and me wanna go home)

Lift six foot, seven foot, eight foot bunch

(Till I come and me wanna go home)

Six foot, seven foot, eight foot bunch

(Till I come and me wanna go home)

Day is a day oh

(Till I come and me wanna go home)

Day is a day, is a day, is a day, is a day

(Till I come and me wanna go home)

Come Mister Tally Man, tally me banana

(Till I come and me wanna go home)

Come Mister Tally Man, tally me banana

(Till I come and me wanna go home)

Day oh, day oh

(Till I come and me wanna go home)

Day is a day, is a day, is a day, is a day, is a day oh

(Till I come and me wanna go home)
