Tom T. Hall - How to Talk to a Little Baby Goat Lyrics

How do you talk to a little baby goat you can't go meow like a cat
When you go meow to a little baby goat he can't go meow right back
No you have to say baaa to a little baby goat you can't say hello like a man
You have to say baaa to a little baby goat that's all he understands
How do you talk to a little baby goat you can't go cackle like a hen
When you go cackle to a little baby goat it doesn't mean a thing to him
So you have to say baaa...
How do you talk to a little baby goat you can't go quack like a duck
When you go quack to a little baby goat it just doesn't mean very much
So you can't go meow cackle quack to a goat you can't say hello like a man
You can't go meow cackle quack to a goat remember you have to say baaa
