Song 5: "Somebody Lend me a Donkey"
Joseph
Some of my neighbours have got donkeys
‘Cos they’ve got money...you should hear them talk. Now we’ve got to go to Bethlehem
Looks like we’re gonna-have to walk.
All
Won’t...somebody lend me a donkey?
Somebody lend me one please?
The Romans are making us walk so far
We’re gonna be down...on our knees...
Please lend me a donkey
Mary’s having a baby...so
Lend me one PLEASE!
Simon and Jacob
Yes it’s true, we do own donkeys
We’ve got money...and yes we like to talk.
And although you’ve got to go to Bethlehem...
Looks like you’re gonna...have to walk.
All
Won’t...somebody lend me a donkey?
Somebody lend me one please?
The Romans are making us walk so far
We’re gonna be down...on our knees...
Please lend me a donkey
Mary’s having a baby...so
Lend me one PLEASE!
We can’t lend you a donkey...
Although you’re having a baby, So...
Stop asking PLEASE!
