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

And when you're on the mountain, you got no guarantees
That life will turn up roses or turn out as you please
When you're on the mountain, there's lots to be a'feared
That's why this here old mountain goat'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 '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

Yeehee, keep your hands and feet
Inside of the vehicle at all times

Ooh, 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 till we're creamed
