Said Hunter Harold to poor Deer Dan
'Run little elk, as fast as you can'
So Deer Dan ran, hustled and scrambled
Broke through the grass, the brush, and the brambles.
And Hunter Harold chased poor Deer Dan
Buckshot-loaded beast of a gun in hand
Following swiftly the trail of Dan's desperate crashing
Intent on becoming the cause of little buck's perishing
Said Deer Dan to poor Hunter Harold
'Poor mean man, you're now in terrible peril'
So blindly had Harold pursued his quarry
That now he was left lost, beyond known foray
So beneath the silent mocking gaze of laughing trees
Lie the forgotten bones of Hunter Harold, alone in the breeze
