About the Folk Song
This old American folk song tells a simple story about loss and remembrance, built around the repeated line “the old gray goose is dead.” Its tune likely began as a French melody and became part of early U.S. folk tradition. The song’s slow pace and clear phrasing make it a favourite for beginner musicians and folk singers alike. Its plain language and gentle sadness give it a lasting emotional pull.
