About

“Nodding Donkey Blues” is on the B-side of the Be Quick or Be Dead single. It is, unlike many of Iron Maiden’s B-side songs, not a cover, but an original blues-style humor song.

The lyrics are about an enormously large woman at a bar somewhere.

Nodding Donkey Blues Lyrics

Settle down!

[Verse 1]
She's got legs like an airship
She's got an arse like coal tip
She's got tits just like hot air balloons - and I mean the Hindenburg!
She's the biggest girl, I'm gonna get there soon
Yeah, you know what I mean

[Verse 2]
She's got love when you want it
But she never lets go when you get it
You disappear inside, you're never seen again... lost forever
She's the biggest girl of all but I'm gonna get there soon
Alright, here we go...
Should be some kind of guitar solo here...

[Piano Solo]

[Verse 3]
Well I met her in a bar, she was propping up the wall
I don't think she was available, she was made a conference stall
I met her in a bar, she was, she was propping up the wall
In fact she was nailed to it
I gotta admit (?) babe... let's get down to it baby!

[Verse 4]
She had a brain like a sheep-dip
She got love like a cesspit on your mind
She was a big girl, she was big
And I mean she was big, she was fucking huge!
Enormous!
You could have sailed the Hindenburg through her legs and never even have landing permission!

[Guitar Solo: Janick Gers]

One more!

[Guitar Solo: Dave Murray]

[Outro]
Oh we sailed across the ocean you and me
I looked like a flea on the back of a sperm whale
Oh yeah, I was waving a match inside the Albert Hall!
