The Hunt Lyrics by Deep Chatham

Flood

2013

[Verse 1]
It was early in the springtime
When she came to me
Loaded gun in her hand
At the devil's command
Her past, it had no love
Her present had no dream
Her future held only sorrow
And her heart, it bled only greed
[Refrain]
Well I remember the day
The sun set so serene
Death stood with open hands
And her words stick with me
[Chorus]
She said, don't you look back
When there's hounds on your track
When they find you, they'll kill you
And tomorrow won't cut no slack
So if you live another day
Then you might find a better way
But if they find you, then they will kill you
And they will hunt you both night and day
[Verse 2]
Now it is late in the fall
Every thought turns to you
And his heart swells with pain
All his feelings subdue
But now he drinks just to get by
He tips a bottle to all demise
In hopes that some day, if they do find him
That the hunt can then subside
[Refrain]
Well I remember the day
The sun set so serene
Death stood with open hands
And her words stick with me
[Chorus]
She said, don't you look back
When there's hounds on your track
When they find you, they'll kill you
And tomorrow won't cut no slack
So if you live another day
Then you might find a better way
But if they find you, then they will kill you
And they will hunt you both night and day
And she said, don't you look back
When there's hounds on your track
When they find you, they'll kill you
And tomorrow won't cut no slack
So if you live another day
Then you might find a better way
But if they find you, then they will kill you
And they will hunt you both night and day
