ON THE WALL IT IS ETCHED A MAN WITH A SPEAR

AND A BIG RUNNING BEAST WITH HORNS AND ONE EAR

I THINK THAT IT MEANS HE BROUGHT HOME THE BEAST

TO HIS FAMILY AND FRIENDS SO THAT THEY COULD ALL FEAST

AND SO IT IS TRUE FOR ME ON THIS DAY

MY HUNT OF A LIFETIME, IT SEEMS, I MUST SAY

IT TOOK ME SO LONG TO GAIN OF THIS LUCK

I THINK I WILL HOLD OUT FOR A VERY BIG BUCK

A BUCK OF MY DREAMS TO HANG ON MY WALL

WITH ANTLERS IN WIDE INCHES, MANY POINTS AND REAL TALL

IT MAY ONLY TAKE MINUTES BUT IT MIGHT TAKE ME DAYS

BUT WHATEVER IT BE, I’LL TREASURE THE BEST AND HOPE THAT IT PAYS

AND IF IT DON’T HAPPEN AND I TAKE MY TAG HOME

AT LEAST I WAS OUT HERE AND ABLE TO ROAM

THE LURE OF THE MOUNTAINS AND ALL THE FRESH AIR

CAMPING AND HUNTING WITH ALL MY FRIENDS THERE

I KNOW I WILL SEE LOTS OF DEER, RABBITS AND BIRDS

AND MANY OTHER WILD BEASTS TRAVELING ALONE OR IN HERDS

FOR ME IT’S AN OUTING OF GREATEST OPPORTUNE

TO PURSUE A BIG MULY I HOPE TO SEE SOON

WHEN IT IS THE RIGHT ONE, THE ONE OF MY DREAM

MY DECISION WILL BE SWIFT AND MY SIGHTS WILL BE SEEN

THE ROAR OF MY CAP LOCK FIRING DOWN

SENDING MY BIG BUCK STRAIGHT TO THE GROUND

AND WHEN IT’S ALL OVER AND ALL THE CAMP PACKED

I’LL LOOK OVER THE MOUNTAINS AND SWEAR I’LL BE BACK

AND BACK AT MY HOME THE ANTLERS WILL HANG AND BE SEEN

FOR ALL MY CAVE FRIENDS TO WONDER WHAT IT ALL MEANS.
