Am E7
Am E7 Am E7
On a wagon bound for market
Am Dm E7 Am
there's a calf with a mournful eye
Am E7 Am E7
High above him there's a swallow
Am Dm C E7 Am
winging swiftly through the sky
Chorus:
G C
How the winds are laughing
G C
they laugh with all their might
G C G C
Laugh and laugh the whole day through
Am E7 Am
and half the summers night
E7 Am
Donna Donna Donna Donna
G C
Donna Donna Donna Don
E7 Am
Donna Donna Donna Donna
E7 Am E7 Am
Donna Donna Donna Don
Stop complaining said the farmer
Who told you what had 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
But whoever treasures freedom
like the swallow has learned to fly
chorus
