  The Handsome Family 
  
  
  
  Hunter Green
  
  
  Last fall I hunted white-tail deer
  My dog and gun with me
  I wandered to a shady grove
  Where ivy grew dark green
  Where ivy grew dark green
  
  I raised my gun so carefully
  And fired into the trees
  Then saw it was my true love fell
  In a dress of darkest green
  A dress of darkest green
  
  Her eyes reflected back the moon
  As I carried her back to my car
  But as I crossed the empty road
  Was a dead deer in my arms
  A dead deer in my arms
  
  Next night I rowed upon the waves
  To catch a leaping fish
  But on the hook my lover's heart
  I pulled from briny depths
  
  
  I pulled from briny depths
  
  As I lay her cold corpse down
  In the bottom of my boat
  It was a jumping fish
  Caught in my nets and rope
  Caught in my nets and rope
  
  Third night I spied a wild boar
  Charging madly through the trees
  But I raised not my gun to her
  Just let her come to me
  Just let her run to me
  
  And as I fell in mossy ferns
  As her teeth grabbed hold of me
  It was the lips of my true love
  That kissed me dark and green
  Kissed me dark and green
