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 ay
|
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
|
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
|
|
O ho lay dee odl lee o, o ho lay dee odl ay
|
O ho lay dee odl lee o, lay dee odl lee o lay
|
|
There was 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
|
|
Now 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
|
|
Odl lay ee (odl lay ee)
|
Odl lay hee hee (odl lay hee hee)
|
|
O ho lay dee odl lee o, o ho lay dee odl ay
|
O ho lay dee odl lee o, lay dee odl lee o lay
|
|
Happy are the lay dee olay dee lee o...
|
And soon the duet will become a trio
|
