Donkey's Song Lyrics

I'm just a donkey, slow and strong

Walking steady, singing my song

Though the road is rough, and the hills are steep

I carry my load and never miss a beat

They laugh and call me foolish and slow

But I take my time, and I always know

Every step forward, no matter how small

Is better than running and losing it all

I don't need glory, I don't need fame

I work with purpose, no shame in my name

You ride high today, but wait and see

When troubles come, you'll call on me

I'm just a donkey, slow and strong

Walking steady, singing my song

Though the road is rough, and the hills are steep

I carry my load and never miss a beat

Slow and steady is the way I move

No need to rush, got nothing to prove

Life's not a race, it's a long old track

What you send out will come right back

Some dream of riches, some dream of speed

But I take pride in meeting the need

Every burden I bear, I bear with grace

It's not about the prize, it's about the pace

So laugh if you want, I don't mind at all

Even when you stumble, I won't let you fall

For patience and strength will see me through

I'll carry the weight, I'll carry you too

I'm just a donkey, slow and strong

Walking steady, singing my song

Though the road is rough, and the hills are steep

I carry my load and never miss a beat

So be like the donkey, humble and true

Do what you must, and see it through

For life's not about how fast you run

It's about the journey when the day is done
