I'm Going Hunting Today

[Verse]
Oh, I'm going hunting today, my dear,
With my plaid coat and a flask of cheer,
Through the meadows and the woods so green,
Where the rabbits play and the dogwoods lean.
[Verse 2]
I've packed a sandwich and a tale or two,
As the morning sun dries the dewy dew,
With a whistle and a jaunty stride,
I'll face the trees with my heart open wide.
[Chorus]
Oh, the thrill of the chase, it's a merry old game,
Each rustle and crackle sets my spirit aflame,
With a twinkle in my eye and a song in the air,
I'm going hunting today, without a care.
[Verse 3]
There's a patch of clover where the foxes roam,
And a bubbling brook not far from home,
Where the trout do leap and the moss does cling,
I'll find adventure 'neath a bird's sweet sing.
[Bridge]
So wish me luck as I journey out,
With a merry grin and a joyful shout,
I'll tell you tales when I return,
Of all the wonders and what I've learned.
[Chorus]
Oh, the thrill of the chase, it’s a merry old game,
Each rustle and crackle sets my spirit aflame,
With a twinkle in my eye and a song in the air,
I'm going hunting today, without a care.
