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 (vultures)
The starvin' vultures (vultures)
And the old man's ghost
I can see the vultures (vultures)
Starvin' vultures (vultures)
Killin' two white goats
And in the big, big, big cities
I gave all I got
And I shared a secret (secret) with a stranger (stranger)
For he won't say it to my father
And I can see the vultures (vultures)
The starvin' vultures (vultures)
And the old man's ghost
I can see the vultures (vultures)
The starvin' vultures (vultures)
Killin' two white goats
And I can see the vultures (vultures)
The starvin' vultures (vultures)
And the old man's ghost
I can see the vultures (vultures)
The starvin' vultures (vultures)
Killin' two white goats
Killin' two white goats
Oh, killin' two white goats
Oh, killin' two white goats
