Lyrics

Back on the farm when the sun goes down.
The last light's off at old farmer Brown's
From out in the barnyard and out in the fields
His four legged friends are kickin up their heels
They're gonna dance till they get their fill
It's the Billy Goat Boogie on Nanny Goat Hill

Leader of the band is Billy B. Goat
He plays boogie woogie while he chews on a rope
Little brother Jimmy plays the old tin cans
A mule and a hound dog round out the band
They drink corn liquor from a homemade still
It's the Billy Goat Boogie on Nanny Goat Hill

Billy Goat Boogie
Billy Goat Boogie
Billy Goat Boogie
It's got a beat that you can't sit still
It's the Billy Goat Boogie on Nanny Goat Hill

All the little Nannies are crazy bout Billy
They clap their hooves and they act real silly
Billy's hot but as cool as can be
in his Stetson straw hat and his waxed goatee
They dance up front throwing dollar bills
It's the Billy Goat Boogie on Nanny Goat Hill

Billy Goat Boogie
Billy Goat Boogie
Billy Goat Boogie
It's got a beat that you can't sit still
It's the Billy Goat Boogie on Nanny Goat Hill

Say Billy, Do you do it for the money
Naaaaa I do it for the nannies
Hey Billy, Do you have a special honey
Naaaaa love all those little fannies

Billy Goat Boogie
Billy Goat Boogie
Billy Goat Boogie
It's got a beat that you can't sit still
It's the Billy Goat Boogie on Nanny Goat Hill
It's the Billy Goat Boogie on Nanny Goat Hill
