Come, mister tally man, tally me banana

(Daylight come and me wan’ go home)

Come, mister tally man, tally me banana

(Daylight come and me wan’ go home)

Definitely not about coal miners, but certainly a song about blue collar workers

I was just thinking about that song because I watched The Greatest Night in Pop, and they broke into singing Day-O at one point in the process. I was just thinking a call and response work song would have made for a much better solution for what they were trying to do, which was have a chorus, but also give soloists a chance to do a very quick solo.
