It's a real authentic Italian Christmas song then? Afraid not - our friends here in Italy have never heard of it! This is a song beloved of Italian-Americans and made famous by the lovely Lou Monte in the early 1960s. It's the story of a little donkey who helps Santa take gifts to all the children of Italy because the reindeer can't manage Italy's hills. Let's not waste any time though - here it is in all its glory! The original song version, although not an original video. There was no such thing as music videos in Lou Monte's day!

Chingedy ching, (hee-haw, hee-haw) The Italian Christmas donkey. Santa's got a little friend His name is Dominick; The cutest little donkey - You never see him kick. When Santa visits his ‘paisans’, With Dominick he'll be, Because the reindeer cannot climb The hills of Italy.

Jingle bells around his feet And presents on the sled; Hey - look at the mayor's derby, On top of Dominick's head! A pair of shoes for Louie And a dress for Josephine; The labels on the inside says They're made in Brooklyn. Children sing, and clap their hands And Dominick starts to dance; They talk Italian to him, And he even understands. “Cumpare sing, Cumpare su” And dance ‘a tarantell’ When San’a Nicola’ comes to town, And brings u ciucciariell’. But wait - w hat does that weird bit in the middle mean? It’s Sicilian dialect. ' Paisans' means fellow countrywomen and men.

' San’na Nicol' ': the dialect version of 'San Nicola' - Saint Nicholas or ‘Santa Claus’. And ' u cucciarell' ' is dialect meaning ‘the little donkey’.

So now you know that, try singing along again! Here's a really fun version for you to sing with.

For some reason - no-one seems quite sure why - a college fraternity at Butler University, Western Illinois, USA, adopted Dominick as their college anthem over twenty-five years ago. Between Thanksgiving and Christmas every single year, they play the Italian Christmas Donkey at full blast from the windows of their dorm. Some of their neighbours don't much like it apparently - but hey! - it's all part of the Christmas spirit! Here's their version.

Dominic the Italian Donkey song and video Dominick the Donkey is a well known Christmas song written by Ray Allen and Lou Monte and first sung by Lou Monte in 1960. For decades the song was only occasionally heard.

Oldies 103.3 WODS of Boston, Massachusetts and WCBS-FM in New York are common stations that play the song around Christmas. It was perceived to be too novel for the softer music stations and too old or corny for CHR/Top 40 stations. But beginning in the early 1990's, more contemporary artists began to record Christmas music. As a result, younger skewing radio stations began to feature more Christmas music on their stations, even going wall to wall on Christmas Eve and Christmas day. While there were more Top 40 core artists doing Christmas music by 1992, the stations still needed to play older artists to supplement the newer Christmas music. A few stations found this song and began mixing it into their Christmas rotations.
