Lyrics The Everly Brothers

The Everly Brothers

Donna, Donna

[Chorus]

Donna, Donna, why'd you want to do that?

You led me on and lured me off

Then you turned me down flat, da-da, da-da

Donna, Donna, why'd you want to do that?

You tempted me and tortured me

And left me where I was at, da-da, da-da-da

Donna, why'd you want to 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 eye

That made my heart get ready

You built my hopes up to the skies

And then you told me no

[Chorus]

Well, you really fed me quite a lie

You really snowed me under

I thought that things were workin' fine

From every thing you said

But when that Johnny boy came by

He really stole my thunder

When he gave you the bloomin' eye

He really cut me dead

Donna, Donna, why'd you want to do that?

You led me on and lured me off

Then you turned me down flat, la-da, da-da

Donna, Donna
