G Up on the back so heavy set a big man, G D7 G Singin' such a sad song, as he rode into town. [Verse 2] G And the man, the man sing to the donkey, C G But he sing such a sad song, and the guitar he broke. G The donkey stop, the man reach he get a big jug, G D7 G Him and the donkey take a sip o' the drink.
