Lyrics

High on a hill was a lonely goatherd, layee odl, layee odl layee-oo
Loud was the voice of the lonely goatherd, layee odl, layee odl-oo
Folks in a town that was quite remote heard, "Layee odl, layee odl layee-oo"
Lusty and clear from the goatherd's throat heard, "Layee odl, layee odl-oo"
Oho layee odlee-oh, oho layee odl-ay
Oho layee odlee-oh, layee odl-ay-ho-lay
A prince on the bridge of a castle moat heard, "Layee odl, layee odl layee-hoo"
Men on the road with a load to tote heard, "Layee odl, layee odl-ooh"
Men in the midst of a table d'hôte heard, "Layee odl, layee odl-ooh"
Men drinking beer with the foam afloat heard, "Layee odl, layee odl-ooh"
One little girl in a pale pink coat heard, "Layee odl, layee odl-ooh"
She yodeled back to the lonely goatherd, "Layee odl, layee odl-ooh"
Soon her mama with a gleaming gloat heard, "Layee odl, layee odl layee-ooh"
What a duet for a girl and goatherd
Layee odl, layee odl-ooh
[Instrumental]
Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm (Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm)
Ode layee (Ode layee)
Ode layee-ee (Ode layee-ee)
Ode layee
Oh, oh, oh, oh layee odl layee-oo
Oh, oh, layee odl lay
Oh, oh, oh, oh layee odl layee-oo
Layee ododlleeoay
One little girl in a pale pink coat heard, "Layee odl, layee odl layoo-oo"
She yodeled back to the lonely goatherd, "Layee odl, layee odl-o"
Soon her mama with a gleaming gloat heard, "Layee odl, layee odl lay mmm mmm"
What a duet for a girl and goatherd, layee odl, layee odl-o
Happy are they layee odllayee-o, oh layee odlayee layee-o
Soon their duet will become a trio
Layee odl, layee odl layee-o
Ode lay-ee
Ode lay-ee (Ode lay-ee)
Ode lay-ee-ee (Ode lay-ee-ee)
Ode lay-ee (Ode lay-ee)
Odllayee odllay (Odllayee odllay)
Odllayee odllay (Odllayee odllay)
Odllayee odllay (Odllayee odllay)
Odlayee odlayee odlay (Woo)
