Leave My Donkey Alone (Alt-Pop Mix)

[Instrumental intro] [Verse 1] In a village of old, where the peasants toil, There's a man with a donkey, his pride and his joy. But the villagers, oh, they're a mischievous lot, With their pranks and their jeers, they give him no thought. [Pre-Chorus] They paint the donkey's coat in hues of bright, Tie cans to his tail in the dead of night. They fill his pack with rocks and with stones, Laughing and mocking, they leave him alone. [Chorus] Leave my donkey alone, For he's not just a beast to be thrown. With every prank, you chip at my heart, Leave my donkey alone, depart! [Drop] [Instrumental Interlude] [Verse 2] Through the fields and the forests, the donkey must roam, With the weight of his burdens, he longs for a home. But the villagers chase him with sticks and with cries, Their childish antics, they can't realize. [Pre-Chorus] They braid flowers into his mane, And tie ribbons around his reins. But beneath the jest, lies a plea, To let him wander, to let him be free. [Chorus] Leave my donkey alone, For he's not just a beast to be thrown. With every prank, you chip at my heart, Leave my donkey alone, depart! [Drop] [Instrumental Interlude] [Bridge] [Drop] [Instrumental Interlude] [Bridge] But the peasant's patience wears thin, As he sees the cruelty within. He'll stand and fight for his friend, Until these pranks come to an end. [Chorus] Leave my donkey alone, For he's not just a beast to be thrown. With every prank, you chip at my heart, Leave my donkey alone, depart! [Instrumental Outro] [Outro] So heed these words, oh villagers fair, Treat the donkey with kindness, show that you care. For every creature, big or small, Deserves respect, one and all. [Ending] For every creature, big or small, Deserves respect, one and all. [Ending]
