Just The Right Bullets |
| There is a light in the forest |
| There is a face in the tree |
| I’ll pull you out of the chorus |
| And the first one’s always free |
| You can never go a-hunting |
| With just a flintlock and a hound |
| You won’t go home with a bunting |
| If you blow a hundred rounds |
| It takes much more than wild courage |
| Or you’ll hit the tattered clouds |
| You must have just the right bullets |
| And the first one’s always free |
| You must be careful in the forest |
| Broken glass and rusty nails |
| If you’re to bring back something for us |
| I have bullets for sale |
| Why be a fool when you can chase away |
| Your blind and your gloom |
| I have blessed each one of these bullets |
| And they shine just like a spoon |
| To have sixty silver wishes |
| Is a small price to pay |
| They’ll be your private little fishes |
| And they’ll never swim away |
| I just want you to be happy |
| That’s my only little wish |
| I’ll fix your wagon and your musket |
| And the spoon will have its dish |
| And I shudder at the thought of your |
| Poor empty hunter’s pouch |
| So I’ll keep the wind from your barrel |
| And bless the roof of your house |
