Original Tale: How Came You To Be So Blue?

One, two, three, and four

Three little goslings and a mother goose more

All stopped by my house today 

They weren't colored in a normal way

One, two, three, and four

Three little goslings and a blue goose more

"How came you to be so blue?"

Was the thing I asked Goose Two

"Sat beneath a painter's paint

Watched the painter paint a gate

Got a drop or two on me

Said this is the life I see."

One, two, three, and four

Three little goslings told their mother more

"Let's be blue instead of white,

 Let's give Farmer Brown a fright."

"How came you to wander here?"

This I asked to goslings dear

"Wanted washing," honked the one

"We tried blue and now we're done."

Rubbed my chin and cocked my head

"Wait for rain," was all I said

Wagging tails to show delight

Rain came down and now they're white.
