Pum-Pa-Lum

There was a day in September\nAs clear as I can remember\nI was visiting Kingston town\nAnd taking a look around\nI saw a cute little fellow\nWho was looking downhearted\nWhen I asked what the matter could be\nHe stopped to tell the story\nI had a little donkey\nAnd he done got locked up\nPum pa lum (pum pa lum)\nThey stick him in the jail\nAnd he ain’t done nothing\nPum pa lum (pum pa lum)\nGot him peeping through the bars\nLike a little monkey\nPum pa lum (pum pa lum)\nThe folks all say\nHe been a real bad donkey\nPum pa lum (pum pa lum)\nThey say he’s acting\nLike there’s rum in his hay\nPum pa lum (pum pa lum)\nHe wasn’t drunk\nHe just wanna play\nPum pa lum (pum pa lum)\nI hear they’re gonna\nHave a trial in the morning\nPum pa lum (pum pa lum)\nI’m gonna tell the judge\nThat he ain’t done nothing\nPum pa lum (pum pa lum)\nLa la la la la…\nFirst he bumped Mrs. Mary\nAnd then he bite the policeman\nTurn and broke Mr. Webster’s cart\nWhich was almost fallen apart\nHe started a little riot\nBut now there’s peace and there’s quiet\nSee how he done empty the street\nAin’t no one to trip your feet\nI had a little donkey\nAnd he done got locked up\nPum pa lum (pum pa lum)\nThey stick him in the jail\nAnd he ain’t done nothing\nPum pa lum (pum pa lum)\nGot him peeping through the bars\nLike a little monkey\nPum pa lum (pum pa lum)\nThe folks all say\nHe been a real bad donkey\nPum pa lum (pum pa lum)\nThey say he’s acting\nLike there’s rum in his hay\nPum pa lum (pum pa lum)\nHe wasn’t drunk\nHe just wanna play\nPum pa lum (pum pa lum)
