  Banana Boat Song - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Banana Boat Song is a traditional Jamaican Calypso folk song, whose best-known version was sung by Harry Belafonte.
The song was used in a famous dinner scene in Tim Burton's Beetlejuice.
The song was originally a Jamaican folk song of unknown authorship; it was sung by Jamaican banana workers, with the familiar melody and the common refrain ("daylight come and we wanna go home"), but with many different sets of lyrics, some possibly improvised on the spot.

Bananas are parthenocarps, the edible banana is the fruit of a sterile hybrid.
So great is the demand for bananas in Western countries – and so great a revenue-earner has the banana become – that during the late 1990s a trade war almost broke out between the USA and various European states, each calling upon the others to abandon protectionist policies favouring selected suppliers.
Bananas grown for export, such as these ones in the Seychelles, are cut when still green and ripened during the voyage.

A banana boat (or water sled), often referred to simply as a banana, is an unpowered recreational boat designed to be pulled by a larger boat.

Banana boats are often yellow and are sometimes actually moulded into the shape of a banana.

 Calypso: Day-O / Banana Boat Song
The song was first recorded in England around 1954 by Trinidadian vocalist and actor Edric Connor.
In 1956 two new arrangements of the song were recorded independently by Caribbean-American singer Harry Belafonte and the Tarriers, an American group that interpreted folksongs.
Their version, called "The Banana Boat Song," is actually a medley with another Jamaican folksong: "Hill and Gully Rider." Both the Tarriers and the Belafonte versions of the song shot to the top of the pop music charts in early 1957.

 RARB Review of Banana Boat - A morze tak, a moze nie...
These simple work songs were sung on deck to get through the sometimes tiresome and monotonous voyages at sea, and Banana Boat captures this with aplomb.
Banana Boat is not just a group; they are a sub-sub-genre unto themselves.
And yet, as wonderful and praise-worthy as Banana Boat's sound may be, taken as a whole, the album suffers from an unfortunate sameness.

 The Banana Boat Song: 'Daylight come and me wan' go home ...'   (Site not responding. Last check: )
The tune, known formally as "The Banana Boat Song" and informally as "Day-o," was adapted by songwriter Irving Burgie from a Jamaican folk song after World War II.
Burgie, 81 and living in New York City, said the folk song was slower and had a steadier, non-calypso beat than his version because it was the work song banana boat loaders sang to get them through a long night of hauling the fruit from trucks to boats.
At the end of the night, a banana counter, known as a "tally man," would figure out how much each worker would be paid.

 Jewlicious » Putting the “Banana” in “Banana Boat Song”
Speaking of the truth, who is the tally-man and what does he do when he “tallys me bananas”?
I’m pretty sure the tally man is the one who counts up the bananas after “daylight come” and “he [the banana man] wanna go home.”
He’s an entertainer who had a few hit songs and albums, not to mention a mediocre film career and slightly better stage career.
