De time of de year is late September
Wit de worst conditions dat I remember
It's cold and rainy; oh de weather is harsh
But I'm goin' goose huntin' in de Horicon Marsh
Two day vacation - great location
Geese are flyin' south on de winter migration
I'll stay all day - Cripe, I hope I have luck
So I can bag a big overgrown Canadian duck
Fer goose detection, I found a good section
Where I can see de marsh from every direction
I'm huddled in a blind sittin' on a stump
With a thermos full of coffee and a 10-guage pump
In de sky I'm starin', goose call's blaring
Camouflage clothes is what I'm wearing
If I see one comin' I'm a turn it loose
I'll take aim at the game and bust a goose!
Just bust a goose
It won't stop rainin', I keep complaining
I can't see much and my eyes are straining
If I see one flyin' by God I swear
I'm a shoot that goose right outta de air
Decoys baitin' and I'm still waiting
Der ain't no geese, an' it's gettin' frustrating
As I thought to myself - were they comin' at all?
I blew three quick blasts on my wooden goose call
Rain still pourin', it was gettin' boring
Then I thought I caught a sight of somethin' soaring
A big flock o' geese I could barely see
And they were comin' straight in shaped like a V
I got myself ready, held my gun steady
A couple seconds more! Oh, my hands are gettin' sweaty!
I should wait a little longer, but what's de use?
I put a finger on de trigger and bust a goose!
Well you shot it - You got it!
You hit it - so go get it! Just Bust a Goose!
Well you shot it - You got it!
You hit it - so go get it!
Here they come, guy!
It's a great big flock an' der honkin' an' squawking
I grab de 10-guage and I'm loadin' and cocking
My sights are on de leader an' he's comin' in fast
My breath held, I let go of a 10-guage blast!
Bird shot's flying, but dey ain't dying
I keep on missin' guy, so I keep trying
Then I got lucky and it finally occurred
And down to de ground fell a big ol' bird
Satisfaction was my reaction
I was so excited dat I wanted more action
There were so many geese I was goin' in shock
If it wouldn't a been illegal, I'd a shot de whole flock
After 27 round der sprawled out on de ground
Was a big fat honker weighin' 24 pound
Put a tag 'round his neck tight like a noose
And dat's what happened when I bust a goose!
Well you shot it - You got it!
You hit it - so go get it! Just Bust a Goose!
Well you shot it - You got it!
You hit it - so go get it!
Goose-huntin' guy!
