"'''The Lonely Goatherd'''" is a popular [[show tune]] from the 1959 [[Rodgers and Hammerstein]] musical ''[[The Sound of Music]]'' that makes use of [[yodeling]].

The song is well known for its examples of [[yodeling]], a part of the traditional music of the [[Central Eastern Alps|Austrian Alps]], where the musical is set (however, it is worth noting that [[Maria von Trapp|Maria]] found the yodeling in the motion picture version of ''[[The Sound of Music]]'' rendition to be lacking in authenticity).<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Juaz5UI6gs&t=2m00s</ref>
