The Electrified Donkey - Johnny Horton

Oh well I bought me a donkey about four foot tall

To plough my cotton in the early fall

He's runnin' around it was an awful sin

I had to build a fence to keep my donkey in

I rigged up a wire with a battery charge

To keep my donkey from a-running at large

Inside this bin I turned him loose

Thrilled by volts of electrified juice

Well which way did my donkey go

If you see him let me know

I haven't seen my donkey since

He backed into that electrified fence

Now the first time he backed up against it

He threw back his ears and he had a fit

He brayed real loud and he hit high gear

He jumped up into the stratosphere

I just got word from Albuquerque

A donkey up there was looking for work

He's my donkey and his name is Jack

Oh how I wish he'd come on back

Well which way did my donkey go

If you see him let me know

I haven't seen my donkey since

He backed into that electrified fence

Now more word came from Palomar

A man up there was a-watching the star

While looking through his telescope

He nearly had himself a stroke

He saw something riding up the rainbow trail

With two long ears and a puckered up tail

The thing he saw when he 'firmed the states

Was a donkey heading for the pearly gates

Well which way did my donkey go

If you see him let me know

I haven't seen my donkey since

He backed into that electrified fence
