This is an American folk song, supposedly for children, but it's kind of sad for them to be singing about dead geese, don't you think? Here are the lyrics... Go tell, Aunt Rhodie Go tell, Aunt Rhodie Go tell, Aunt Rhodie Her ole gray goose is dead Th one she's been savin' Th one she's been savin' Th one she's been savin' T' make a feather bed Th goslins are dyin' Th goslin is cryin' Th goslin is dyin' Because his Mama's dead Th gander is weepin' Th gander is weepin' Th gander is weepin' Because his wife is dead Go tell, Aunt Rhodie Go tell, Aunt Rhodie Go tell, Aunt Rhodie Her ole gray goose is dead You can look online and probably find different lyrics, but that's the nature of folk tunes that have been handed down for so many years. Variations will result. At any rate, it's a simple song to play, using just 5 notes.
