Hi- It did appear in Banana Boat Song, but not in Bellafonte's version: The Tarriers recorded it at the same time, and did it as a medly of Day-O and Hill and Gully Riders, both of which were collected in the Islands and published by the Library of Congress back in the late 30s. There was a lawsuit about who had rights to what they both had stolen (borrowed, liberated, whatever); I don't recall who won.
