Lyrics
Goatie
Ch: Goatie is a goat that lives in the mountains
A wild mountain goat that's true!
But give him some jelly beans, broccoli, and bubblegum
And he'll be friends with you...
He'll be friends with you.
V1: Here is a tale that the Indians tell of a place near Idaho
Way up in those Rocky Old Mountains where no man
could ever go!
He's white and hairy with two sharp horns and a beard
hangs to his knees
And when the kids call out for help, he comes down through
the trees!
Chorus
Goatie... Goatie...
V2: When kids get lost, alone in the woods, bad things may
wait for them
But when the kids call out for help, he comes down through
the trees!
Chorus
Goatie... Goatie...
He'll be friends with you
He'll be friends...with you!
