Donkey Tonkin’
(With apologies to Hank Williams)

If you are sad and lonely Tonight
And have no place to go
Just come to see us baby
And bring a little dough.

And we’ll go Donkey Tonkin’, Donkey Tonkin’
We’ll go Donkey Tonkin’, honey baby
We’ll go Donkey Tonkin’ round this town.

We’re goin’ to Nashville Palace*
To the Palace fair
If you go to the Palace look around
And you’ll find me there.

And we’ll go Donkey Tonkin’, Donkey Tonkin’
We’ll go Donkey Tonkin’, honey baby
We’ll go Donkey Tonkin’ round this town.

The TN House and Senate
Their Caucus, yeah, no doubt
Are having a sweet fundraiser
And we are steppin’ out.

Yes we’ll go Donkey Tonkin’, Donkey Tonkin’
We’ll go Donkey Tonkin’, honey baby
We’ll go Donkey Tonkin’ round this town.

Chuck Mead, the Governor, and other surprises
All inside so you won’t freeze
Food, drinks, fun, and dancing
$25 single/$40 for you and your squeeze

Yes we’ll go Donkey Tonkin’, Donkey Tonkin’
We’ll go Donkey Tonkin’, honey baby
We’ll go Donkey Tonkin’ round this town.

*Nashville Palace, 2611 McGavock Pike, 6:30 p.m
