Sal de ahí chivita, chivita
Sal de ahí de ese lugar.
Vamos a buscar al lobo
Para que saque a la chiva.
El lobo no quiere sacar a la chiva,
La chiva no quiere salir de ahí.
(Estribillo)
Vamos a buscar al perro
Para que saque al lobo.
El perro no quiere sacar al lobo,
El lobo no quiere sacar a la chiva,
La chiva no quiere salir de ahí.
(Estribillo)
Vamos a buscar al palo
Para que le pegue al perro.
El palo no quiere pegarle al perro,
El perro no quiere sacar al lobo,
El lobo no quiere sacar a la chiva,
La chiva no quiere salir de ahí.
(Estribillo)
Vamos a buscar al fuego
Para que queme al palo.
El fuego no quiere quemar el palo,
El palo no quiere pegarle al perro,
El perro no quiere sacar al lobo,
El lobo no quiere sacar a la chiva,
La chiva no quiere salir de ahí.
(Estribillo)
Vamos a buscar al agua
Para que apague el fuego.
El agua no quiere apagar el fuego,
El fuego no quiere quemar el palo,
El palo no quiere pegarle al perro,
El perro no quiere sacar al lobo,
El lobo no quiere sacar a la chiva,
La chiva no quiere salir de ahí.
(Estribillo)
Vamos a buscar al balde
Para que lleve el agua.
El balde no quiere llevarse el agua,
El agua no quiere apagar el fuego,
El fuego no quiere quemar el palo,
El palo no quiere pegarle al perro,
El perro no quiere sacar al lobo,
El lobo no quiere sacar a la chiva,
La chiva no quiere salir de ahí.
(Estribillo)
Vamos a llamar al hombre
Para que se lleve al balde.
El hombre no quiere llevarse a el balde,
El balde no quiere tomar el agua,
El agua no quiere apagar el fuego,
El fuego no quiere quemar el palo,
El palo no quiere pegarle al perro,
El perro no quiere sacar al lobo,
El lobo no quiere sacar a la chiva,
La chiva no quiere salir de ahí.
(Estribillo)
Vamos a llamar al diablo
Para que se lleve al hombre.
El diablo no quiere llevarse al hombre,
El hombre no quiere llevarse al balde,
El balde no quiere tomar el agua,
El agua no quiere apagar el fuego,
El fuego no quiere quemar el palo,
El palo no quiere pegarle al perro,
El perro no quiere sacar al lobo,
El lobo no quiere sacar a la chiva,
La chiva no quiere salir de ahí.
(Estribillo)
Vamos a llamar al ángel
Para que se lleve al diablo.
El ángel no quiere llevarse al diablo,
El diablo no quiere llevarse al hombre,
El hombre no quiere llevarse al balde,
El balde no quiere tomar el agua,
El agua no quiere apagar el fuego,
El fuego no quiere quemar el palo,
El palo no quiere pegarle al perro,
El perro no quiere sacar al lobo,
El lobo no quiere sacar a la chiva,
La chiva no quiere salir de ahí.
(Estribillo)
Vamos a llamar a Dios
Para que se lleve el ángel.
Dios sí quiere llevarse al ángel,
El ángel sí quiere llevarse al diablo,
El diablo sí quiere llevarse al hombre,
El hombre sí quiere llevarse al balde,
El balde sí quiere tomar el agua,
El agua sí quiere apagar el fuego,
El fuego sí quiere quemar el palo,
El palo sí quiere pegarle al perro,
El perro sí quiere sacar al lobo,
El lobo sí quiere sacar a la chiva,
La chiva ya salió de ahí.
Ya salió la chivita, chivita,
Ya salió de ese lugar.
(Chorus)
Get out of there, kid goat, kid goat,

Let's go find the wolf
So he can take the kid goat out.

Let's go find the stick
So it can hit the dog.
The stick doesn't want to hit the dog,

Let's go call the devil
So he can take away the man.
The devil doesn't want to take away the man,

Let's go call the angel
So she can take away the devil.

She got out, the kid goat, the kid goat,
She got out of that place.
