| Hey! |
| Chingedy ching,
|
| (Hee-haw, hee-haw)
|
| It’s Dominick the donkey.
|
| Chingedy ching,
|
| (Hee-haw, hee-haw)
|
| The Italian Christmas donkey.
|
| (La la la-la la-la la la la la)
|
| (La la la-la la-la la-ee-oh-da)
|
| Santa’s got a little friend,
|
| His name is Dominick.
|
| The cutest little donkey,
|
| You never see him kick.
|
| When Santa visits his paisons,
|
| With Dominick he’ll be.
|
| Because the reindeer cannot,
|
| Climb the hills of Italy.
|
| Hey! |

| The Italian Christmas donkey.
|
| (La la la-la la-la la la la la)
|
| (La la la-la la-la la-ee-oh-da)
|
| Jingle bells around his feet,
|
| And presents on the sled.
|
| Hey! |
| Look at the mayor’s derby,
|
| On top of Dominick’s head.
|
| A pair of shoes for Louie,
|
| And a dress for Josephine.
|
| The labels on the inside says,
|
| They’re made in Brooklyn.

| (La la la-la la-la la la la la)
|
| (La la la-la la-la la-ee-oh-da)
|
| Children sing, and clap their hands,
|
| And Dominick starts to dance.
|
| They talk Italian to him,
|
| And he even understands.
|
| Cumpadre sing,
|
| Cumpadre su,
|
| And dance la tarantel.
|
| When Santa Nicola comes to town,
|
| And brings suo ciucciariello.

|
| Hey! |
