Day Oh Day Oh Day Oh Day Oh
Day me say Day Oh (Day light come and me no want to go home)
Day me say Day Oh (Day light come and me no want to go home)
Dance all night until the morning come (Day light come and me no want to go home)
Mannish water, fish tea, rum punch (Day light come and me no want to go home)
Come Mr. Sound-man string up on the corner (Day light come and me no want to go home)
Play some selection nice up 'bout on yah (Day light come and me no want to go home)
With six foot, seven foot, eight foot box (Day light come and me no want to go home)
Six foot, seven foot, eight foot box (Day light come and me no want to go home)
Day me say Day Oh (Day light come and me no want to go home)
Day me say Day, me say Day, me say Day, me say Day, me say Day Oh (Day light come and me no want to go home)
