Come Mister tally man, tally me banana (Daylight come and we want go home) Lift six foot, seven foot, eight foot bunch (Daylight come and we want go home)
"when can I have a drink of rum? Daylight coming and I want to go home" Day O, a classic made so popular by Belafonte. If you notice, the tempo of the song is based on the rhythm of people pulling the oars, to move the boat. Thank you for posting
