Hunter Green Lyrics

Last fall I hunted white-tail deer

My dog and gun with me

I wandered to a shady grove

Where ivy grew dark green

Where ivy grew dark green

I raised my gun so carefully

And fired into the trees

Then saw it was my true love fell

In a dress of darkest green

A dress of darkest green

Her eyes reflected back the moon

As I carried her back to my car

But as I crossed the empty road

Was a dead deer in my arms

A dead deer in my arms

Next night I rowed upon the waves

To catch a leaping fish

But on the hook my lover's heartHandsome Family - Hunter Green - http://motolyrics.com/handsome-family/hunter-green-lyrics.html

I pulled from briny depths

I pulled from briny depths

As I lay her cold corpse down

In the bottom of my boat

It was a jumping fish

Caught in my nets and rope

Caught in my nets and rope

Third night I spied a wild boar

Charging madly through the trees

But I raised not my gun to her

Just let her come to me

Just let her run to me

And as I fell in mossy ferns

As her teeth grabbed hold of me

It was the lips of my true love

That kissed me dark and green

Kissed me dark and green
