The day is real early as he walks in Picks up a few beer cans with an eager grin And then he tumbles way down the street The only way he knows how on his dirty feet That good old goat That good old goat He's that good old goat, baby That good old goat Took a visit to the grocery shop and looked right in Scared some honest people off with the smell of gin Started paying for a pack and then suddenly ran Not even the guards react on that old man's dance That good old goat That good old goat He's that good old goat, baby That good old goat Oh can you hear him calling Feeling so fine That goat is howling baby Almost all the time Oh can you hear him begging Even if he's low That good old goat needs some more Oh can you hear him calling Feeling so fine That goat is howling baby Almost all the time Oh can you hear him begging Even if he's low That good old goat needs some more That good old goat That good old goat He's that good old goat, baby That good old goat
