Day-O é a versão mais conhecida de uma música tradicional jamaicana, consolidada no estilo calypso.
Harry Belafonte cantou a versão que se tornou icônica, transformando a canção em um marco cultural.
A letra descreve trabalhadores de cais que carregam bananas de noite, pedindo para terminar a jornada.
A frase “Come, Mr. Tally Man, tally me banana / Daylight come and we wanna go home” reflete o desejo de fim de turno.
A música tornou-se referência para representar o cotidiano de marinheiros e trabalhadores portuários em várias mídias.
