Songs / Oh Donna

Born without a clue. A lifetime later, situation largely unchanged. Nevertheless, one perseveres.....

Oh Donna - the song

Oh Donna - Deacon Martin - ecrp - YouTube
"Heart breaking" song about Reverend Deacon Martin's failed love affair.

I had a girl .......................................Donna was her name

She left me standing .......................out in the rain

Well I loved her, my Donna .............I loved her in vain

O Donna

She met a guy .................................upper middle class

Educated, sensitive .........................a complete f**kin ass

Well he dazzled her my Donna .......impressed her with his pass

O Donna

He took her on ................................a fun holiday

It would have cost me .....................half a year's pay

Well he took her my Donna .............he took her away

O Donna O Donna

O Donna O Donna

Now she's come home ....................she called me today

He found someone else ..................and threw her away

But it's different my Donna ..............it's just not the same

O Donna

If she can go off ..............................with a fool on a whim

Distracted and purchased ...............by a turkey like him

Well I'm sorry my Donna .................I think it's the end.

O Donna O Donna
