Oh my father said 
"Just keep silent 
And in the places where you've been 
Nobody will say you've been seen" 

And I go to the woods 
Once or twice a year 
And I sing "doo doo doo" 
When they shave my hair 

And I can see the vultures 
The starvin' vultures 
And the old man's ghost 
I can see the vultures 
The starvin' vultures 
Killin' two white goats 

And in the big, big, big cities 
I gave all I got 
And I shared a secret with a stranger 
For he won't say it to my father 

And I can see the vultures 
The starvin' vultures 
And the old man's ghost 
I can see the vultures 
The starvin' vultures 
Killin' two white goats

And I can see the vultures 
The starvin' vultures 
And the old man's ghost 
I can see the vultures 
The starvin' vultures 
Killin' two white goats
Oh, Killin' two white goats
Oh, Killin' two white goats
Oh, Killin' two white goats
