37 years ago a witch done put a spell on me
A spell where when IÂ'm talkinÂ' IÂ'm singinÂ' it with glee.
When youÂ're always singinÂ' you got to live alone
ThatÂ's why I made this mountain shack my home.
And when youÂ're on the mountain, you got no guarantees
That life will turn up roses or turn out as you please.
When youÂ're on the mountain, thereÂ's lots to be aÂ'feared
ThatÂ's why this here old mountain goatÂ's prepared!
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!

I got horns that open bottles,
And I got horns that hold my keys,
I got horns that when you turn Â'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.
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!
Yeeeheeeee! Keep your hands and feet inside of the vehicle at all times!

Ooooooh, an avalanche is cominÂ' and I do not feel prepared,
ItÂ's rumblinÂ' like a mountain lion - I must say that IÂ'm scared,
And if not for the witchÂ's spell youÂ'd hear just how I scream,
But since IÂ'm only singinÂ', IÂ'll just yodel Â'til weÂ're creamed!

Baaaaa!
