CHORUS:
Day oh, daaay oh.
Daylight come and 'e wan go home.
Da, is a day, is a day, is a dayo
Daylight come and 'e wan go home.

Work all night anna drink a rum
Daylight come and 'e wan go home.
Stock banana till the morning come
Daylight come and 'e wan go home.

Come mister tally man, tally me banana
Daylight come and 'e wan go home.
Come mister tally man, tally me banana
Daylight come and 'e wan go home.

It's six foot, seven foot, eight foot bunch
Daylight come and 'e wan go home.
Six foot, seven foot, eight foot bunch
Daylight come and 'e wan go home.

CHORUS

A beautiful bunch a ripe banana,
Daylight come and 'e wan go home.
Hide the deadly black tarantula
Daylight come and 'e wan go home.

It's six foot, seven foot, eight foot bunch
Daylight come and 'e wan go home.
Six foot, seven foot, eight foot bunch
Daylight come and 'e wan go home.

CHORUS

Come mister tally man, tally me banana
Daylight come and 'e wan go home.
Come mister tally man, tally me banana
Daylight come and 'e wan go home.

CHORUS
