ONE DAMN DEER
S. Paulsen

'Bout four o'clock this morning
Phone rang, it was my friends
They were one case down already
And were just around the bend
So I left without my breakfast
And we had a couple beers
It was time to get our
One Damn Deer
It was time to get our
One Damn Deer

By seven came the sunrise
We'd been up three hours then
Squattin' in a pee stand
When I had to pee again
So I let her rip, the wind come up
And blew it in my ear
And I still ain't seen
One Damn Deer
And I still ain't seen
One Damn Deer

[CHORUS]
One damn deer is all we're after
One damn deer is all it takes
One damn deer strapped to the pickup
One damn deer makes lots of steaks
One damn deer will make a man of me
And let me brag for life
One damn deer will shut the mouth on
One damn wife

By nine o'clock, a fatal mix
Of guns and alcohol
Got even worse when multiplied
By sudden bad snowfall
We slipped and slid and fell
And nearly shot off Eddie's rear
And still we ain't seen
One Damn Deer
And still we ain't seen
One Damn Deer

By noon the beer was mostly gone
And so was most of my desire
To find a buck, and I was cold
So I lit the woods on fire
It seemed a good idea at the time
But turned out quite severe
Besides I ain't seen
One Damn Deer

[CHORUS]

By two the rangers came
As John began to smoke some grass
If they would't have been wearing brown
They wouldn't have got shot in the ass
But as it is, they were, and it did
Shorten their career
And we still ain't seen
One Damn Deer
And we will ain't seen
One Damn Deer

Now, it's four o'clock, the day is shot
But we still have our lives
'Til we get home, empty handed
And we have to face our wives
So we strapped Bill to the bumper
Though he did not volunteer
We never did see
One Damn Deer
We never did see
One Damn Deer

[CHORUS]
