Little Donkey

Little donkey, little donkey

On the dusty road

Got to keep on plodding onwards

With your precious load

Been a long time, little donkey

Through the winter's night

Don't give up now, little donkey

Bethlehem's in sight

Ring out those bells tonight

Bethlehem, Bethlehem

Follow that star tonight

Bethlehem, Bethlehem

Little donkey, little donkey

Had a heavy day

Little donkey, carry Mary

Safely on her way

Do not falter, little donkey

There's a star ahead

It will guide you, little donkey

To a cattle shed

Ring out those bells tonight

Bethlehem, Bethlehem

Follow that star tonight

Bethlehem, Bethlehem

Little donkey, little donkey

Had a heavy day

Little donkey, carry Mary

Safely on her way
