Donetsk Donna down on Gorky Street Wearing shades in Donbass heat And shelled stores are just a sideshow Donna throws out old clothes
And yes her flat is gone now She got to travel light now She got to tear up all her roots now She got to put on combat boots now
Yeah, she thinks she's tough She ain't no Donetsk rose But the blind singer He's seen enough and he knows It's time to do a song about A long gone Donbass girl But I got one for you Beauty in a war zone
She sees a man shot in the back there Escaping Nazi stares there Donetsk Donna lingers Sniper gloves got no fingers The dying mans last wish Put his money in the church dish He once wore the Red Star Order Upon a time he was bolder-bolder
Yeah, she thinks she's tough She ain't no Donetsk rose But the blind singer He's seen enough and he knows It's time to do a song about A long gone Donbass girl But I got one for you Beauty in a war zone
This time the radio is a squaking With Motorola doing the talking Upon a truck there dies a Ukrop She get done crying for the Ukrop Then she hears the battle's rumble As she leaves the Airport jungle She is no Donetsk flower Just the girl who took the tower
Donna just a walking Donna's out taking a stroll She don't care about your western rock Or the Nazi death toll It's time to do a song about A long gone Donbass girl But I got one for you Beauty in a war zone
