There is a light in the forest There is a face in the tree I'll pull you out of the chorus And the first one's always free You can never go a-hunting With just a flintlock and a hound You won't go home with a bunting If you blow a hundred round It takes much more than wild courage Or you'll hit the tattered clouds You must have just the right bullets And the first one's always free You must be careful in the forest Broken glass and rusty nails If you're to bring back something for us I have bullets for sale Why be a fool when you can chase away Your blind and your gloom I have blessed each one of these bullets And they shine just like a spoon To have sixty silver wishes Is a small price to pay They'll be your private little fishes And they'll never swim away I just want you to be happy That's my only little wish I'll fix your wagon and your musket And the spoon will have it's dish And I shudder at the thoughtof your Poor empty hunter's pouch So I'll keep the wind from your barrel And bless the roof of your house
