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 winters night

Dont give up now, little donkey,

Bethlehems 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

Little donkey, little donkey, journey's end is near

There are wiseman waiting for a sign to bring them here

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

Little donkey, carry Mary, safely on her way
