Day oh, day oh
Day dah light and me wan' go home
(Day dah light and me wan' go home)
Day dah light and me wan' go home

Come Mista Tallyman, come tally mi banana

Come fix yuh cotta, Matty, fe come tek bunch banana
(Day dah light and me wan' go home)

Six hand, seven hand, eight hand bunch

Six hand, seven hand, eight hand bunch

Six hand, seven hand, eight hand bunch
(Day dah light and me wan' go home)

Di check-a-man a check but him check wid caution

Mi back dis ah broke wid ah bare exhaustion
(Day dah light and me wan' go home)

Day oh, day oh
Day dah light and me wan' go home
Day dah light and me wan' go home
