Goats in the Road
Song – Goats in the Road above
The first goat in the road was in the Bad Ax River Valley near DeSoto, Wisconsin. John was on a gravel road and on his way to play in a small town bar in Iowa.
There was a goat in the road.

“Goin’ on down to the Corner Stone bar
Got no money got no guitar
Well I felt good and I got in the car
There was goats in the road, didn’t get real far
Goats in the road, goats in the road
Everybody knows there’s goats in the road
Goats in the road, goats in the road
Life’s no more than goats in the road“
A collection of songs by Noj Nitram (John E. Martin)
