Does Anyone Know a Song with the Line “”My father had an old grey goose ho Nellie ho””?

My granny sang a song about a fat goose I think it may have been called “Ho Nellie Ho”:

My father had an old grey goose ho Nellie ho. My father had an old grey goose ho Nellie ho. He put her up and he fattenned her ho Nellie ho, etc, etc.

Maybe the next verse was: “He put her up on the table ho Nellie ho.” (Repeat.) Then, “She broke all the table legs off ho Nellie ho.”

That’s all I can remember. I don’t know how it ends… Julie

If anyone can help with the rest of the lyrics to this song, please comment below or email me.

Thanks!

Lisa
