My ole donkey

Went courting one day

With a donkey named

Melda across the way

She was twice his age

He put up a fight

Now he's crying every nightHarry Belafonte - Hold 'Em Joe - http://motolyrics.com/harry-belafonte/hold-em-joe-lyrics.html

Oh, lemme go, darling Melda

You breaking my back bone

Lemme go, darling Melda

You breaking my, everybody

Oh, lemme go, darling Melda

You breaking my back bone

Once again now
