Chili Sauce

(Album: Breaking It Up! - 1958)

I've had a little donkey
Who is just a stubborn fool
Her mother was a donkey
But her father was a mule
I like to go to marketplace
To buy some chili sauce
I hitch her to the wagon
She say "I'm no hoss"

Chili, chili sauce
Chili, chili sauce
Chili, chili, chili, chili
Chili, chile sauce!

This donkey, she is stupid
And she don't know wrong from right
She follow me to school one day
To learn to read and wright
We have examination, and you know one funny thing?
The donkey get a hundred, and I get nothing

Chili, chili sauce
Chili, chili sauce
Chili, chili, chili, chili
Chili, chile sauce!

This donkey, she is lazy
And she only eat and sleep
My father say he throw her in the water where it's deep
He take her on the river and he put her in a sack
The donkey rode the boat home
And my papa, he swim back

Chili, chili sauce
Chili, chili sauce
Chili, chili, chili, chili
Chili, chile sauce!
Chili, chili sauce
Chili, chili sauce
Chili, chili, chili, chili, chili, chili
Chili, chili
Chili, chile sauce!
