:When the day is good, and the wind is dry
 
:When the goose is hanging high
 
:I can't work like other men do
 
:And the goose is hanging high
 
:There's a big, bright sun in the big, blue sky
 
:When the goose is hanging high
 
:And the devil steals my heart away
 
:And the goose is hanging high
 
:Gold and silver on my mind
 
:Mischief in my soul
 
:I gotta live like the rich man lives
 
:With life in my control
 
:When the day is bad, and the wind is wet
 
:And the goose is flying low
 
:I gotta work like other men do
 
:And the goose is flying low
 
:But when the day is good, and the wind is dry
 
:When the goose is hanging high
 
:I can't work like other men do

When the Goose Is Hanging High is a song from the 1968 Rankin/Bass Christmas special, The Little Drummer Boy.

Lyrics

When the day is good, and the wind is dry
When the goose is hanging high
I can't work like other men do
And the goose is hanging high
There's a big, bright sun in the big, blue sky
When the goose is hanging high
And the devil steals my heart away
And the goose is hanging high
Gold and silver on my mind
Mischief in my soul
I gotta live like the rich man lives
With life in my control
When the day is bad, and the wind is wet
And the goose is flying low
I gotta work like other men do
And the goose is flying low
But when the day is good, and the wind is dry
When the goose is hanging high
I can't work like other men do
When the goose is hanging high
When the goose is hanging high
