Donna Donna

The Everly Brothers

Compositor: Boudleaux Bryant / Felice Bryant

Donna, Donna, why d’ya wanna do that
You led me on and lured me on
Then you turned me down flat, da-da, da-da
Donna, Donna, why d’ya wanna do that
You tempted me and tortured me
And left me where I was at, da-da, da-da-da
Donna, why'd you wanna do that
Well, when I met you at the dance
You made me think you liked me
I thought that we could find romance
You even told me so
You had that promise in your eyes
That made my heart get ready
You built my hopes up to the skies
And then you told me no
Donna, Donna, why d’ya wanna do that
You led me on and lured me on
And then you turned me down flat, da-da, da-da
Donna, Donna, why d’ya wanna do that
You tempted me and tortured me
And left me where I was at, da-da, da-da-da
Donna, why'd you wanna do that
Well, you really fed me quite a line
You really snowed me under
I thought that things were workin' fine
