lirik lagu johnny horton - the electrified donkey
oh, well, i bought me a donkey, about four foot tall
to plough my cotton in the early fall
he’s runnin’ around, it was an awful sin
i had to build a fence to keep my donkey in
i rigged up a wire with a battery charge
to keep my donkey from a-running at large
inside this bin i turned him loose
thrilled by volts of electrified juice
well, which way did my donkey go
if you see him let me know
i haven’t seen my donkey since
he backed into that electrified fence
now, the first time he backed up against it
he threw back his ears and he had a fit
he brayed real loud and he hit high gear
he jumped up into the stratosphere
i just got word from albuquerque
a donkey up there was looking for work
he’s my donkey and his name is jack
oh, how i wish he’d come on back
well, which way did my donkey go
if you see him let me know
i haven’t seen my donkey since
he backed into that electrified fence
now, more word came from palomar
a man up there was a-watching the star
while looking through his telescope
he nearly had himself a stroke
he saw something riding up the rainbow trail
with two long ears and a puckered up tail
the thing he saw when he ‘firmed the states
was a donkey heading for the pearly gates
well, which way did my donkey go
if you see him let me know
i haven’t seen my donkey since
he backed into that electrified fence
