THE OLD GRAY GOOSE COME SAILING HOME Sung by: W.P. Detherow Recorded in Batesville, AR, 6/25/52 Click here to listen to the original recording Come sailing home, come sailing home. The old gray goose come sailing home With a pretty little girl behind her. 'Round, around, and around we go, 'Round and around and around we go, 'Round, around, and around we go; Swing them ladies 'round you. Hold your holts and shuffle to the next, And shuffle to the next, and shuffle to the next. Hold your holts and shuffle to the next, And swing those ladies 'round you. 'Round, around, and around we go, 'Round and around and around we go. 'Round, around, and around we go; Swing those ladies 'round you. (Mr. Detherow: "Now, that can be continued just as long as they want to play it.") |
