[G]Hey! Chingedy ching,
(Hee-haw, hee-haw)
It's Dominick the [D7]donkey.
Chingedy ching,
(Hee-haw, hee-haw)
The Italian Christmas [G]donkey.
(La la la-la la-la la la la [D7]la)
(La la la-la la-la la-ee-oh-d[G]a)
[G]Santa's got a little friend,
His name is Domin[D7]ick.
The cutest little donkey,
You never see him [G]kick.
When Santa visits his paisans,
With Dominick he'll [C]be.
Be[C]cause the reindeer [G]cannot,
Climb the [D7]hills of Ita[G]ly.
[~CHORUS~]
Hey! [G]Chingedy ching,
(Hee-haw, hee-haw)
It's Dominick the [D7]donkey.
Chingedy ching,
(Hee-haw, hee-haw)
The Italian Christmas [G]donkey.
(La la la-la la-la la la la [D7]la)
(La la la-la la-la la-ee-oh-[G]da)
[G]Jingle bells around his feet,
And presents on the [D7]sled.
Hey! Look at the mayor's derby,
On top of Dominick's [G]head.
A pair of shoes for Louie,
And a dress for Jose[C]phine.
The [C]label on the [G]inside says,
They're [D7]made in Broo[G]klyn.
[~CHORUS~]

(La la la-la la-la la la la [D7]la)
(La la la-la la-la la-ee-oh-[G]da)
[G]Children sing, and clap their hands,
And Dominick starts to [D7]dance.
They talk Italian to him,
And he even under[G]stands.
Compadre sing, Compadre su,
And dance la taran[C]tel.
[C]When Santa Nicola [G]comes to town,
And [D7]brings du [G]ciuccianello.
[~CHORUS~]
