A HUNTING SONG
jIuntin' times a-comiIl,
For hear the pheasants drummin
south side of the tree.
An the -.wficker. Wicker. Wicker
OF raspin' screalnin' flicker
Comes a-driftin' from the mountain top
across the crick to me.
= Bob White is a-whistlin
An csrciin' hawks are lsstenn,
Where they slowly sail a-watch.n All INC

The hazel nuts is turnin
An. nv hungry hearts a-yearnin'
For the whirr of birds. the bark of guns
cross the broom sage covered heath.
Why. it was this very mornin'
That i had n sign-a warnin
That the squirrels are here a-cuttin
wherever mast is found;
For found, and I wasn't tryin',
A hicIzory-nut shell lynn
fresh cut and eaten hollow right IN the
foot-trod ground.
Lord. I'm glad tae times a-comin'!
For there's lots OF fun a-bummin
Through the autumn woods dreamin' an
albumin all the day
When a felier.s kinder lazy,
An, the golden days are hay,
An the whisperin' breeze has conjuTed all
mis- troubles far away.
Yes: the huntin' times a-comin.
For hear the pheasants drumnin,
And the chestnut burrs are turnin' on the
south side Of the tree.
The hazel nuts are turniil,
An, my hungry hearts a-yearnin
Tor the woods, where man is master an
his every thought is free
