Hey! Chingedy ching,
(hee-haw, hee-haw)
It's Dominick the donkey
Chingedy ching,
(hee-haw, hee-haw)
The Italian Christmas donkey
(la la la-la la-la la la la la)
(la la la-la la-la la-ee-oh-da)

Santa's got a little friend,
His name is Dominick
The cutest little donkey,
You never see him kick
When Santa visits his paisons,
With Dominick he'll be
Because the reindeer cannot,
Climb the hills of Italy

Hey! Chingedy ching,
(hee-haw, hee-haw)
It's Dominick the donkey
Chingedy ching,
(hee-haw, hee-haw)
The Italian Christmas donkey
(la la la-la la-la la la la la)
(la la la-la la-la la-ee-oh-da)

Jingle bells around his feet,
And presents on the sled
Hey! Look at the mayor's derby,
On top of Dominick's head
A pair of shoes for Louie,
And a dress for Josephine
The labels on the inside says,
They're made in Brooklyn

Hey! Chingedy ching,
(hee-haw, hee-haw)
It's Dominick the donkey
Chingedy ching,
(hee-haw, hee-haw)
The Italian Christmas donkey
(la la la-la la-la la la la la)
(la la la-la la-la la-ee-oh-da)

Children sing, and clap their hands,
And Dominick starts to dance
They talk Italian to him,
And he even understands

Cumpare sing,
Cumpare su,
And dance 'sta tarantel
When jusamagora comes to town,
And brings du ciuccianello

Hey! Chingedy ching,
(hee-haw, hee-haw)
It's Dominick the donkey
Chingedy ching,
(hee-haw, hee-haw)
The Italian Christmas donkey
(la la la-la la-la la la la la)
(la la la-la la-la la-ee-oh-da)

Hey! Dominick! Buon Natale!
(hee-haw, hee-haw)
(hee-haw, hee-haw)
(hee-haw, hee-haw)
