The Lonely Goatherd

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

One little girl in a pale pink coat heard
She yodeled back to the lonely goatherd (odl lay)

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

Soon her Mama with a gleaming gloat heard
Odl lay ee odl lay hee hoo
What a duet for a girl and goatherd
Odl lay ee odl-oo

Schafe können sicher weiden
Wo ein guter hirte Wacht

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

Lay ee odl lay ee odl lay ee
Lay ee odl lay ee odl lay ee
Lay ee odl lay ee odl lay ee
Lay ee odl lay ee odl lay ee
Lay ee odl lay ee odl lay ee
Odl lay ee odl-oo
