When I was a boy, at the
Cold blue lake
my daddy pulled out
A fish
I watched it flop and
Shake
started slowin down, til
It barely moved
I stood ten feet back
And stared
til it was
Through
I felt it way down
Inside
I felt it way down
Inside
shook a pheasant from
A tree
when I saw that bird
Come out
I knew the time had
Come for me
she started movin for the
Clear blue sky
I aimed quick, let the
Bullet fly
I saw it goin right at
Her, pass her by
as I watched bird
Fly away
I dropped my gun and
Cried
I felt it way down
Inside
I felt it way down
Inside
we got a deer laid him
In his tracks
about fifteen mile form
The hunting shack
when we walked up, he
Was still alive
I had to cut his throat with
My grandfather's knife
I slit his belly, his
Gentle form
had to reach my hand
Inside
it was soft and
Warm
I pulled out his heart,
Took a bite
as it went down my
Throat
I felt that animal
Fight
I felt it way down
Inside
I felt it way down
Inside
