This song is widely know in the American scouting movement: there are several variations in use. It's attributed to Margaret "Embers" McGee, but not a lot is known about her other than that she wrote this song.
Lyrics
My paddle's keen and bright,
Flashing like silver,
Follow the wild goose flight,
Dip, dip and swing.
Dip, dip and swing her back,
Flashing like silver,
Follow the wild goose track,
Dip, dip and swing.
