The Lonely Goatherd Lyrics & Tabs by Richard Rodgers
The Lonely Goatherd
guitar chords lyrics
High on a hill was a lonely goatherd
Lay ee odl lay ee odl lay hee hoo
Loud was the voice of the lonely goatherd
Lay ee odl lay ee odl-oo
Folks in a town that was quite remote heard
Lay ee odl lay ee odl lay hee hoo
Lusty and clear from the goatherd's throat heard
Lay ee odl lay ee odl-oo
O ho lay dee odl lee o
O ho lay dee odl lay
O ho lay dee odl lee o
Lay dee odl lee o lay
A prince on the bridge of a castle moat heard
Lay ee odl lay ee odl lay hee hoo
Men on a road with a load to tote heard
A prince on the bridge of a castle moat heard
Lay ee odl lay ee odl lay hee hoo
Men on a road with a load to tote heard
Lay ee odl lay ee odl-oo
Men in the midst of a table d'hote heard
Lay ee odl lay ee odl lay hee hoo
Men drinking beer with the foam afloat heard
Lay ee odl lay ee odl-oo
One little girl in a pale pink coat heard
Lay ee odl lay odl lay hee hoo
She yodeled back to the goatherd
Lay ee odl lay ee odl-oo
Soon her mama with a gleaming gloat heard
Lay ee odl lay odl lay hee hoo
What a duet for a girl and goatherd
Lay ee odl lay ee odl-oo
Ummm (ummm)...
Odl lay ee (odl lay ee)
Odl lay hee hee (odl lay hee hee)
Odl lay ee...
(Yodeling)
One little girl in a pale pink coat heard
Lay ee odl lay ee odl lay hee hoo
She yodeled back to the lonely goatherd
Lay ee odl lay ee odl-oo
Soon her mama with a gleaming gloat heard
Lay ee odl lay ee odl lay hee hoo
What a duet for a girl and goatherd
Lay ee odl lay ee odl-oo
Happy are they
Lay dee olay dee lee o...
(Yodeling)
Soon their duet will become a trio
Lay ee odl lay ee odl-oo
Odl lay ee (odl lay ee)
Odl lay hee hee (odl lay ee)
Odl lay odl lay
Odl lay odl lee
Odl lay odl lee
Odl lay
Odl lay
Odl lay
HOO!
