Burl Ives - The Donut Song lyrics

Burl Ives - The Donut Song

cho: When you walk the streets you'll have no cares

If you walk the lines and not the squares

As you go through life make this your goal

Watch the donut, not the hole.

It's written on the rainbow, in letters made of gold

Written on the rainbow, there's wisdom to behold

My friend the little sparrow flew

Close enough to see

Written on a rainbow is this philosophy.

(Repeat verse)

Little angels wrote it, so folks on earth would know

(Repeat Chorus two times)

I'm off to jolly England where

Bulldogs all wear pants

Off to Pago Pago where alligators dance

My friend the little sparrow will

Take me where he flies

Even to the rainbow to read with my own eyes

(Chorus) (Repeat First Verse)
