Lyrics

Well, I walked around the corner
and I walked around the block,
And I walked right into a donut shop.

And I picked up a donut,
and I licked off the grease,
and I handed the lady a 5-cent piece.

Well, she looked at the nickel,
and she looked at me.
she said, “This nickel isn’t good to me,

It’s got a hole in the middle,
And it goes right through!”
I said, “There’s a hole in my donut too!”

Thanks for the donut, so long!
