Track 4 of 18 on the album "Country Songs For Children" (1995) [Intro] D A7 D A7 D A7 D [Verse 1]
D                    G
How do you talk to a little baby goat?

    A7                     D
You can't go "meow" like a cat

                        G
When you go "meow" to a little baby goat

   D           A7        D
He can't go "meow" right back
[Chorus]
        D                       G
No, you have to say "baaa" to a little baby goat

    A7                       D
You can't say "hello" like a man

                            G
You have to say "baaa" to a little baby goat

D             A7   D
That's all he understands
[Verse 2]
D                    G
How do you talk to a little baby goat?

    A7                       D
You can't go "cackle" like a hen

                          G
When you go "cackle" to a little baby goat

   D              A7       D
It doesn't mean a thing to him
[Chorus]
       D                       G
So you have to say "baaa" to a little baby goat

    A7                       D
You can't say "hello" like a man

                            G
You have to say "baaa" to a little baby goat

D             A7   D
That's all he understands
[Verse 3]
D                    G
How do you talk to a little baby goat?

    A7                      D
You can't go "quack" like a duck

                         G
When you go "quack" to a little baby goat

   D            A7        D
It just doesn't mean very much
[Chorus]
           D                           G
And so you can't go "meow", "cackle", "quack" to a goat

    A7                       D
You can't say "hello" like a man

                                G
You can't go "meow", "cackle", "quack" to a goat

  D          A7           D
Remember you have to say "baaa"
