lirik lagu leadbelly – gray goose
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
