lyrics

These days I wish I was a trapper
Though it's not the fur I'm after
It's an island to myself
In them woods with those books
Carved in all the pine trees
And with the stormy sky behind
The gun it's the pen
And I know 'neath those pines
I will wear my buckskins and
You will wear your moccasins
And we'll sleep 'neath the Earth again

Now over my shoulder I've watched you grow older
I mean I've watched those eyes get colder
With no traps set
Still I know Lady I been cruel to you lately
I mean I been a real fool lately
Still I can't repent
And I know 'neath those pines
I will wear my buckskins and
You will wear your moccasins
And we'll sleep 'neath the Earth again

Now this city it can get pretty shitty
I mean it would look pretty shitty
If it was sitting on your shelf
I mean this city it can get pretty shitty
I mean it can get pretty shitty
Until you drink enough
And still I know 'neath those pines
I will wear my buckskins and
You will wear your moccasins
And we'll sleep 'neath the Earth again
