Lyrics
(Caribbean folk song)
Refrain
Tingalayo, Come, little donkey, come. (repeat)
1. M’ donkey walk, m’ donkey talk, m’ donkey eat with a knife and fork. (repeat)
2. M’ donkey eat, m’ donkey sleep, m’ donkey kick with his two hind feet. (repeat)
3. M’ donkey come, m’ donkey go, m’ donkey fast and m’ donkey slow. (repeat)
