Lyrics

Little Donkey

Well I'm a burro boy

A little donkey

Well I'm a burro boy

A little donkey

Yeah nag nag, nag nag

Nag nag, I'm your nag

But if I cry for help, I leave this world alone

Ooh-ooh

Well I'm a burro boy

A little donkey

Well I'm a burro boy

A little donkey, little donkey

Nag nag, nag nag

Nag, nag, nag nag

But if I cry for help, I leave this world alone

Ooh-ooh

And if I close my eyes, I leave this world alone

And if I close my eyes, I leave this world alone

Ooh-ooh

Oh harder harder

Oh harder harder

And nag nag, little donkey

Yeah your nag, little donkey

I can go ee-aw ee-aw ee-aw ee-aw ee-aw

Ee-aw ee-aw ee-aw ee-aw ee-aw

Ee-aw ee-aw ee-aw ee-aw ee-aw

Ee-aw ee-aw ee-aw ee-aw

Little donkey
