37 years ago a witch done put a spell on me
A spell where when I'm talkin' I'm singin' it with glee.
When you're always singin' you got to live alone
That's why I made this mountain shack my home.
When you're on the mountain, there's lots to be a'feared
That's why this here old mountain goat's prepared!
Yaaayeeeeeeeeeeeyeeeeeeeeeyeeeeeeeeyaaaaaaa
Yaaayeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Yaaayeeeeeeeeeeeyeeeeeeeeeyeeeeeeeeyaaaaaaa
Yaaayeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
I got horns that open bottles,
And I got horns that hold my keys,
I got horns that when you turn 'em right, they help me watch TV.
I got horns that open pickle jars,
And horns that come with hair,
I got horns that hang my other horns -
I always come prepared.
Chorus
Be prepared, be prepared,
This lesson must be shared,
This lesson must be shared,
Be prepared!
Be prepared, be prepared,
And unless you got a spare
You got one life, so handle it with care!
Yaaayeeeeeeeeeeeyeeeeeeeeeyeeeeeeeeyaaaaaaa
Yaaayeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Yaaayeeeeeeeeeeeyeeeeeeeeeyeeeeeeeeyaaaaaaa
Yaaayeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Ya ringadinglanga dingalingidangapipaaaa
Ooooooh, an avalanche is comin' and I do not feel prepared,
It's rumblin' like a mountain lion - I must say that I'm scared,
And if not for the witch's spell you'd hear just how I scream,
But since I'm only singin', I'll just yodel 'til we're creamed!
