The Lonely Goatherd

High on a hill was a lonely goatherd,

Loud was the voice of the lonely goatherd,

Folks in a town that was quite remote heard

Lusty and clear from the goatherd's throat heard

Ho ho lady odlee ho, ho ho lady odl lay

Ho ho lady odl lee ho, lady odl lee ho lay

A prince on a bridge of a castle moat heard

Men on a road with a load to tote heard

Men in the midst of a table hote heard

Men drinking beer with a foam afloat heard

Ho ho, lady odlee ho, ho ho lady odl lay

Ho ho lady odl lee ho, lady odl lee ho lay



One little girl in a pale pink coat heard

She yodeled back to the lonely goatherd,

Soon her mama with a gleaming gloat heard

What a duet for a girl and goatherd,

lay odl aly odl loo



Lay odl lay odl lay hm hm

What a duet for a girl and goatherd, lay odl lay odl loo

Happy are they lady ho lady lee ho, ho lady ho lady lady ho

Soon the duet will become a trio,

Odl lay hee....odl lay hee...odl lay hee hee

Odl lay hee odl lay hee odl lay, hoo!
