Hey little Donna, sweet little Donna I know
You wanted my love and I gave it to you.
Hey little Donna, sweet little Donna you know
Goodbye is hello, ‘cos I’m on the road.

Take it easy, don’t get me wrong,
Just keep me in your dreams.
Take it easy, life goes on
My little backstage queen.

Hey little Donna, sweet little Donna so good
My feeling with you was all very true.
Hey little Donna, sweet little Donna you know
Goodbye is hello, ‘cos I’m on the road.

Take it easy, don’t get me wrong,
Just keep me in your dreams.
Take it easy, life goes on
My little backstage queen.

Hey little Donna
Sweet little Donna
Goodbye Donna …
