    "Goosey Goosey Gander" is an English language Nursery Rhyme.
    The most common modern version of the lyrics is:
    Goosey goosey gander,
    Whither shall I wander?
    Upstairs and downstairs
    And in my lady's chamber.
    There I met an old man
    Who wouldn't say his prayers,
    So I took him by his left leg
    And threw him down the stairs.
