THE GOOSE AND THE GANDER by ANONYMOUS

First Line: O THE GOOSE AND THE GANDER WALK'D OVER THE GREEN
Last Line: AND SHE LAID A WHITE EGG IN A WILLOW TREE ROOT
Subject(s): GEESE;
O the goose and the gander walk'd over the green,
O the goose she went barefoot for fear of being seen,
For fear of being seen, boys, for fear of being seen,
And the goose she went barefoot for fear of being seen.
I had a black hen and she had a white foot,
And she laid an egg in a willow tree root,
In a willow tree root, in a willow tree root,
And she laid a white egg in a willow tree root.
