"Well, hello. Looks like a good party. 

Everybody's having a good time.

Every boy and girl is laughing and hearty.

And still I just can't get you off of my mind.

Oh, Donna. Oh, Donna.

Oh, Donna, darling,

Tell me what did I do?

Hey, there goes and old girlfriend. 

I wonder does she know what I'm going through?

She seems quite happy with her new man.

Oh, Donna, darling, I thought you were too.

Oh, Donna. Oh, Donna.

Oh, Donna, darling, 

Tell me what did I do?

Pretty girls talking to me,
I don't hear what they say.
Standing right up close, but I just
Don't feel that way.
I nod my head, I try to smile,
Make conversation,
But when my mind is somewhere else,
I lack the inspiration.

Oh, Donna. Oh, Donna.

Oh, Donna, darling,

Tell me what did I do."
