Now I remember where I've heard it before -- Beetlejuice!!

"Come, Mr. Tally Mon, tally me banana
(Daylight come and he wan' go home)
It's six foot, seven foot, eight foot, BUNCH!
(Daylight come and he wan' go home)
Six foot, seven foot, eight foot, BUNCH!
(Daylight come and he wan' go home)"

jeffersondem: "The petroleum, ranching, forestry, mining, and trucking industries have used them and continue to buy them."
