[A] Pappy bought me a great big billy goat, mama she washed most every day.
Hung the clothes out on the line, and the gosh darn goat, well he came that way.

I got even with the son of a gun, I'm gonna tie him across the railroad track.
So I tied him across the railroad crack, and the train keep it coming at a thousand rate.
He coughed up them old red shirts, and the gosh darn goat, well he flagged that [F] train.
