Banana Boat Song Songtext
von Harry Belafonte

Day-o day-o
Day light come and me wanna go home
Day me say day me say day me say day me say day me say day-o
Day light come and me wanna go home
Work all night on a drink of rum
Day light come and me wanna go home
Stack banana till the morning come
Day light come and me wanna go home
Come mister tally man tally me Banana
Day light come and me wanna go home
