Artist/Band: Helen Merrill
Lyrics for Song: Donna Donna
Lyrics for Album: In Tokyo / Sings Folk [2001]



On a wagon bound for market,

There's a calf with a mournful eye

High above him there's a swallow

Winging swiftly through the sky



[Chorus]

How the winds are laughing

They laugh with all their might

Laugh and laugh the whole day through

And half of the summer's night

Donna Donna Donna Donna Donna Donna Donna Don

Donna Donna Donna Donna Donna Donna Donna Don



Stop complaining said the farmer

Who told you a calf to be

Why don't you have wings to fly with

Like the swallow so proud and free



[Chorus]



Calves are easily bound and slaughtered

Never knowing the reason why

Those who love and cherish freedom

Like the swallow will learn to fly



[Chorus]
