About This Song
About "Grey Goose (Wnyc - Folk Songs of America, Recorded 3/13/1941, Pt. 2)" by Lead Belly
A wry tale of a grey goose and a narrow escape, delivered with Lead Belly's signature twelve-string bounce. The WNYC tape hiss adds a time-capsule warmth, but beneath the playful rhythm lurks a folk tradition of survival—lightness masking the shadow of consequence.
