The melody of this folk song is attributed to Jean-Jacques Rousseau, who used it in his pastoral opera bouffe Le Devin du village which premiered in Fontainebleau on October 18, 1752.




Go Tell Aunt Rhody

Go tell Aunt Rhody, go tell Aunt Rhody,
Go tell Aunt Rhody her old gray goose is dead.

The one she's been saving, the one she's been saving,
The one she's been saving to make a feather bed.

She died in the mill pond, she died in the mill pond,
She died in the mill pond from standing on her head.

The goslings are mouning, the goslings are mourning,
The goslings are mourning because their mammy's dead.

The gander won't eat now, the gander won't eat now,
The gander won't eat now because his mate is dead.

Go tell Aunt Rhody, go tell Aunt Rhody,
Go tell Aunt Rhody her old gray goose is dead.
