The Billy Goat's Gruff Songtext
von Peter Combe

A little billy goat stepped on to a bridge
Only to be met by a hungry Troll
"I′ve seen some greener grass, so please let me pass"
"But I want to eat you up," said the Troll

Don't eat me up, don′t eat me up
There's a bigger billy goat coming soon
Don't eat me up, don′t eat me up
Please, Mr Troll, let me go

A bigger billy goat stepped on to the bridge
Only to be met by a hungry Troll
"I′ve seen some greener grass, so please let me pass"
"But I want to eat you up," said the Troll

Don't eat me up, don′t eat me up
There's a bigger billy goat coming soon
Don′t eat me up, don't eat me up
Please, Mr Troll, let me go


The biggest billy goat stepped on to the bridge
Only to be met by a hungry Troll
"I′ve seen some greener grass, so please let me pass"
"But I want to eat you up," said the Troll

"Is that so?" said the goat to the Troll
"I'm feeling kinda peckish myself you know
I think I'll start with you Mr Juicy Troll
You look a tasty bite, yes, I think I′ll eat you!"

Oh, don′t eat me up, don't eat me up
Find another Troll and let me go
Don′t eat me up, don't eat me up
Find another Troll and let me go

Oh, don′t eat me up, don't eat me up
Find another Troll and let me go
Don′t eat me up, don't eat me up
Find another Troll and let me go

Well, off you go, you big bully
You're a bad troll
You know, I′ve got a good mind to ring up your mother
And tell her what a disgrace you are to your family
Go on
Off you go
