The Lonely Goatherd - 1965 Original Soundtrack Version

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-ooh

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-ooh

O-ho-lay-dee-odl-lee-o, o-ho-lay-dee-odl-ay

O-ho-lay-dee-odl-lee-o, o-lay-dee-odl-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-ooh

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-ooh

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-ooh

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-ooh

Mmm-hm-hm-hmm (hmm-hmm)

Odl-lay-ee (odl-lay-ee)

Odl-lay-hee-hee (odl-lay-hee-hee)

Odl-lay-ee

O-ho-lay-dee-odl-lee-o, o-ho-lay-dee-odl-ay

O-ho-lay-dee-odl-lee-o, o-lay-dee-odl-lay

One little girl in a pale pink coat heard

Lay-ee-odl-lay-ee-odl-lay-hoo-hoo

She yodeled back to the lonely goatherd

Lay-ee-odl-lay-ee-odl-ooh

Soon her mama with a gleaming gloat heard

Lay-ee-odl-lay-ee-odl-lay-hmm-hmm

What a duet for a girl and goatherd

Lay-ee-odl-lay-ee-odl-ooh

Happy are they, lay-dee-o-lay-dee-lee-oh

Oh-lay-dee-oh-lay-dee-hay-dee-oh

Soon the duet will become a trio

Lay-ee-odl-lay-ee-odl-ooh

Odl-lay-ee, odl-lay-ee (odl-lay-ee)

Odl-lay-hee-hee (odl-lay-hee-hee), odl-lay-ee (odl-lay-ee)

Odl-lay-odl-lay (odl-lay-odl-lay), odl-lay-odl-lee (odl-lay-odl-lay)

Odl-lay odl-lee (odl-lay-odl-lay)

Odl-lay-odl-lee-odl-lay (woo!)
