memories (the hunting song)

as the sunlight peaks over the top of the trees

and the dew gives way to a cool breeze

i find myself sittin' next to my hero

it's a tradition daddy said so

he said he learned this from his daddy long ago

and if i stayed real still i might find what i'm lookin' for

and i did

i found out what life's about

when i was sittin' up in that tree

i realized i was huntin' more than deer

when it was just him and me

hell yeah i had a ball

spent time with family

but the thrill of the kill

ain't nothin' compared to these memories

now as the sunlight peaks over the top of them trees

and the dew gives way to that cool breeze

i find myself sittin' next to my hero

well he's only four feet tall

with his daddy's face

and he's as excited as i was

on the day that my daddy told me

if i stayed real still i might find what i'm lookin' for

i found out what life's about

when i was sittin' up in that tree

i realized i was huntin' more than deer

when it was just him and me

hell yeah i had a ball

spent time with family

but the thrill of the kill

ain't nothin' compared to these memories

well now my life is gettin' faster

there's nothin' more important than memories

i found out what life's about

when i was sittin' up in that tree

i realized i was huntin' more than deer

when it was just him and me

hell yeah i had a ball

spent time with family

but the thrill of the kill

ain't nothin' compared to these memories
