The Grey Goose Lyrics - Leadbelly

Well, las' Monday mornin', Lawd, Lawd, Lawd, 

Well, las' Monday mornin', Lawd, Lawd, Lawd 

My daddy went a-huntin' 

Well, he carried along his zulu1 

Well, along come a grey goose 

Well, he throwed it to his shoulder, 

an' he ram his hammer' way back 

Well, he pulled on de trigger 

Well, down he come a-windin' 

He was six weeks a-fallin' 

He was six weeks a-findin' 

An' he put him on de wagon, 

An'he taken him to de white house

He was six weeks a-pickin' 

Lordy, your wife an'my wife, 

Oh, they give a feather pickin' 

An' they put him on to parboil2 

He was six months a-parboil', 

An' they put him on de table, 

Now, de fork couldn' stick him, 

An' de knife couldn't cut him 

An' they throwed him in de hog-pen, 

An' he broke de ol'sow's jawbone

An' they taken him to de sawmill, 

An' he broke de saw's teeth out 

An' de las' time I seed him, 

Well, he's flyin' across de ocean, 

Wid a long string o' goslin's, 

An' they all goin': quank quink-quank
