BmWith a donkey on my Emshoulder,
DAnd a jackal F#on my back,
BmI’ll carry these, my Emchildren,
DKeep them safe F#from attack
EmThe donkey makes it Ahard
to dance, F#the jackal sings too Bmloud
EmThe donkey cries when Bmit’s
alone, and the F#jackal is too F#proud
BmLittle donkey is Emgetting restless,
DGetting heavier F#as it grows
BmAnd the jackal, Emspoilt and spiteful,
DKeeps biting at F#my nose
AmI would have a Dmlover,
Da husband, and F#a child
BmBut the donkey Emis too jealous,
CAnd the jackal Eis to
Emwild A Bm
It’s too Emwild A F#
EmYou ask me why I Akeep them,
F#Why I love them Bmso,
Why they Emget away with Amurder,
F#As they grow and F#grow and grow, oh
I Emkeep them ’cause I Amade them,
DThey come from in my F#heart
With Emeach mistake I Amake
Created, F#and torn Bmapart
And Emwhen it’s time to Afeed them,
F#Before they go to Bmbed,
I Emgive them my Aconfessions,
DBaked within their F#bread
BmLittle donkey is Emgetting restless,
DGetting heavier F#as it grows
BmAnd the jackal, Emspoilt and spiteful,
DKeeps biting at F#my nose
BmLittle donkey is Emgetting restless,
DGetting heavier F#as it grows
BmAnd the jackal, Emspoilt and spiteful,
DKeeps biting at F#my nose
