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
