I'M GONNA SHINE UP MY BOOTS, PICK UP MY BEST HAT,
GOIN' TO A PLACE CALLED THE \"OLD BRIAR PATCH\"
GONNA GET LOOSE, AND I'M GONNA HAVE FUN,
GONNA GO HUNTIN' BUT I WON'T NEED A GUN, NOW
WELL, THE SEASONS ALWAYS OPEN AND THERE AIN'T NO LIMIT YOU SEE
AND THEY CAN BE MORE CHALLENGING THAN A ROCKY MOUNTAIN SHEEP
I HAVE HUNTED THEM FOUR LEGGED DEER,
BUT THE TWO LEGGED ARE A LOT MORE FUN
I'M GONNA GO HUNTIN TONIGHT, LORD BUT I AIN'T TAKIN NO GUN
HEY THE KIND OF GAME I'M LOOKING FOR IS NOT THAT HARD TO SNARE
BUT THEY CAN BE MORE DANGEROUS THAN A BIG OLD GRIZZLY BEAR
THEY GOT LONG CLAWS, LONG LEGS, AND A SKIN ALREADY TANNED IN THE SUN
I'M GONNA GO HUNTING TONIGHT, LORD AND I AINT TAKING NO GUN
VERSE 2
I'M GONNA GO HUNTIN TONIGHT, LORD BUT I AIN'T TAKIN NO GUN
HEY THE KIND OF GAME I'M TALKIN' BOUT' IS NOT THAT HARD TO SNARE
BUT THEY CAN BE MORE DANGEROUS THAN A BIG OLD GRIZZLY BEAR
THEY GOT LONG CLAWS, LONG LEGS, AND A SKIN ALREADY TANNED IN THE SUN
I'M GONNA GO HUNTING TONIGHT, LORD AND I AINT TAKING NO GUN
