Lyrics
Ay, Jing-a-di-jing hee haw hee haw
It's Dominic, the donkey
Jing-a-di-jing hee haw hee haw
The Italian Christmas donkey
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la
La, la, la, la, la, la, laeohda
Santa's got a little friend, his name is Dominic
The cutest little donkey, you never see him kick
When Santa visits his Paesans with Dominic he'll be
Because the reindeer cannot climb the hills of Italy
Ay, Jing-a-di-jing hee haw hee haw
It's Dominic, the donkey
Jing-a-di-jing hee haw hee haw
The Italian Christmas donkey
La-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
La, la, la, la, la, la, laeohda
Jingle bells around his feet and presents on the sled
Hey, look at the mayor's derby on top of Dominic's head
A pair of shoes for Louis and a dress for Josephine
The label on the inside says they're made in Brooklyn
Ay, Jing-a-di-jing hee haw hee haw
It's Dominick, the donkey
Jing-a-di-jing hee haw hee haw
The Italian Christmas donkey
La-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la, laeohda
Children sing and clap their hands and Dominic starts to dance
They talk Italian to him and he even understands
Cummares' and Cumpare's do the dance a tarentell'
When Santa Nicola comes to town and brings il ciucciariello
Ay, Jing-a-di-jing hee haw hee haw
It's Dominic, the donkey
Jing-a-di-jing hee haw hee haw
The Italian Christmas donkey
La-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la, laeohda
Hey Dominic Bouna Natale
Hee haw, hee haw
