Donkey Riding

(album: Play - 1997)

[Chorus:]

Way hey and away we go
Donkey riding, donkey riding
Way hey and away we go
Riding on a donkey.

Was you ever in Quebec
Launching timber on the deck?
Where ya break yer bleeding neck
Riding on a donkey!

[Chorus]

Was you ever 'round Cape Horn
Where the weather's never warm?
Wished to God you'd never been born
Riding on a donkey.

[Chorus]

Was you ever in Miramichi
Where ye tie up to a tree,
An' the girls sit on yer knee?
Riding on a donkey

[Chorus]

Was you ever in Fortune Bay
See the girls all shout, "Hooray!"?
"Here comes dad with ten weeks pay
Riding on a donkey."

[Chorus]

Was you ever in London-town
See the King he does come down?
See the King in his golden crown
Riding on a donkey

[Chorus]
