Where White Goose Goes
white goose, white goose
fly away home
John found white feathers
up creek
the farmer not home
white goose, white goose
swim for your nest
John found white feathers
down creek
beseeched the preacher
to bless
white goose, white goose
walk the road to the right
John found bloody feathers
evidentially a fight
white goose, white goose
take the left turning path
away from fox's footprints
and the hungry hunter's wrath
white goose, white goose
stay where you are
food, shelter, and friends
though some may find
the company bizarre
