Delaney had a donkey everyone admired,
Tempo'rily lazy and permanently tired
A leg at ev'ry corner balancing its head,
And a tail to let you know which end it wanted to be fed
Riley slyly said ""We've underrated it,
Why not train it?" Then he took a rag
Rubbed it, scrubbed it, oiled and embrocated it,
Got it to the post and when the starter dropped the flag

There was Riley pushing it, shoving it, shushing it
Hogan, Logan and ev'ryone in town
Lined up attacking it, shoving it and smacking it
They might as well have tried to push the Town Hall down!
The donkey was eyeing them, openly defying them
Winking, blinking, twisting out of place
Riley reversing it, ev'rybody cursing it
The day Delaney's donkey ran the half-mile race

The muscles of the mighty never known to flinch,
Didn't move the donkey quarter of an inch
Delaney lay exhausted, hanging round its throat
With a grip just like a Scotchman on a twenty shilling note
Starter, Carter lined up all the rest of 'em.
When it saw them, it was willing then
Raced up, braced up, ready for the best of 'em.
They started off to cheer it but it changed its mind again

There was Riley pushing it, shoving it and shushing it
Hogan, Logan and Mary Ann Macgraw,
She started poking it, grabbing it and choking it
It kicked her in the bustle and it laughed ""Hee - Haw!""
The whigs and conservatives, radical superlatives
Libr'rals and Tories, they hurried to the place
Stood there in unity, helping the community
To push Delaney's donkey in the halfmile race

The crowd began to cheer it, Rafferty, the judge
Came to assist them, still it wouldn't budge
The jockey who was riding, little John McGee,
Was so thoroughly disgusted he went home to get his tea
Hagan, Fagan students of psychology,
Swore they'd shift it with some dynamite
Bought it, brought it, then without apology
The donkey gave a sneeze and blew the darn stuff out of sight

There was Riley pushing it, shoving it and shushing it
Hogan, Logan all the bally crew,
P'lice, and auxil'ary, the Garrison Artillery
The Second Inniskilling's and the Life Guards too
They seized it and harried it, picked it up and carried it
Cheered it, steered it to the winning place
Bookies all drew aside, and committed suicide
Because Delaney's donkey won the halfmile race
