"The Banana Boat Song" lyrics - THE TARRIERS

Hill and gully rider, hill and gully
Hill and gully rider, hill and gully
Hill and gully rider, hill and gully
Hill and gully rider, hill and gully

Day-o, day-o
Day de light and I wanna go home
Day-o, day-o
Day de light and I wanna go home

Well, I load the banana boats all night long
Day de light and I wanna go home
Hey, all of the work men sing this song
Day de light and I wanna go home

Day-o, day-o
Day de light and I wanna go home
Day-o, day-o
Day de light and I wanna go home

Well, I sleep by sun and I work by moon
Day de light and I wanna go home
I going to tell you
When I get some money gonna quit so soon
Day de light and I wanna go home

Day-o, day-o
Day de light and I wanna go home
Day-o, day-o
Day de light and I wanna go home

Day-o, day-o
Day de light and I wanna go home
Day-o, day-o
Sing me
Day de light and I wanna go home

Well, I pack up all my things and I'll go to sea
Day de light and I wanna go home
Oh, den de bananas see the last of me
Day de light and I wanna go home

Sing me
Day-o, day-o
Day de light and I wanna go home
Day-o, day-o
Day de light and I wanna go home

Hill and gully rider, hill and gully
Hill and gully rider, hill and gully
Hill and gully rider, hill and gully
