Did you ever see a wild goose
Sailing o'er the ocean?

Ranzo, Ranzo, weigh heigh!

They're just like them pretty girls
When they gets the notion

Ranzo, Ranzo, weigh heigh!

The other morning
I was walking by the river

Ranzo, Ranzo, weigh heigh!

When I saw a young girl walking
With her topsails all a-quiver

Ranzo, Ranzo, weigh heigh!

I said, "Pretty fair maid
And how are you this morning?"

Ranzo, Ranzo, weigh heigh!

She said none the better
For the seeing of you
Ranzo, Ranzo, weigh heigh!
