NOT QUITE LIGHT ENOUGH TO SEE MY SIGHT

I’LL BE ON TOP BEFORE FIRST LIGHT

AND ON WE TRAVEL MY TRUCK AND ME

AND AT FIRST LIGHT A BUCK TO SEE

THE CHAINS ARE FILLED WITH ICE AND SNOW

BUT CLAW ON TO WHERE THE BIG BUCKS GO

BIG BUCKS LINGER FROM THE NIGHT FED

I WILL SEE THEM EARLY BEFORE THEY BED

THERE STANDS ONE AND BIG TO BOOT

JUST A WE BIT FAR FOR ME TO SHOOT

I MAKE A PLAN AND CLOSE THE GAP

AND HALF COCK MY MUZZ AND PLACE A CAP

THERE STANDS THE BUCK, IT’S BIG AND TALL

FULL COCK THE HAMMER AND LET IT FALL

THE RIFLE ROARS ITS BELCHING FIRE

SMOKE FILLS THE COLD AIR TO MY DESIRE

AND WHEN IT CLEARS I THANK GOD  IT’S DOWN

LOAD IT UP AND HEAD BACK TO TOWN
