Lyrics Arlo Guthrie

Arlo Guthrie

Me and My Goose

Me and my goose

Me and my pal

We had some very good times

Me and my goose his name was Al

And he cost only a dime

Over meadows we'd stray

Playing all day

I missed him at night until dawn

Then one day I found he wasn't around

I wondered where Al could have gone

I looked everywhere he just wasn't there

Where could a goose be all day

I miss my pal

I miss my Al

It's sad that things turned out this way

Then mom brought him

I remember her grin

Stuffed with his feet pointed straight

I'll never forget the night that we ate

Al off of the old yellow plate
