Help: Gandy Goose

From: mrb@clear.net.nz

Hi, dont know if any of you have read "The shipping news" by E.A. Proulx- in the book the one of the characters sings a song "the gandy goose, it aint no use, cause all the nuts and bolts are loose...", does this refer to a boat called the gandy goose???

I wonder if anybody knows where I could find the words and/or music to this song.

Please email me at mrb@clear.net.nz if you do.

Happy christmas and a new year.

Best regards Mike

Hi, Mike - As I recall, I thought the Goose was a boat, but I may be wrong. What page is it mentioned on? the Mudcat Cafe is an open forum, so it's a good idea to stop and check your thread a few times over a few days, to see if you got any responses - that's better than hoping for e-mail replies.
