[Verse 1]
Your father's gone a-hunting
He's deep in the forest so wild
And he cannot take his wife with him
He cannot take his child
[Verse 2]
Your father's gone a-hunting
In the quicksand and the clay
And a woman cannot follow him
Although she knows the way
[Verse 3]
Your father's gone a-hunting
Through the silver and the glass
Where only greed can enter
But spirit, spirit cannot pass
[Verse 4]
Your father's gone a-hunting
For the beast he'll never bind
And he leaves a baby sleeping
And his blessings all behind
[Verse 5]
Your father's gone a-hunting
And he's lost his lucky charm
And he's lost the guardian heart
That keeps the hunter from the harm
Your father's gone a-hunting
He's deep in the forest so wild
And he cannot take his wife with him
He cannot take his child
[Verse 2]
Your father's gone a-hunting
In the quicksand and the clay
And a woman cannot follow him
Although she knows the way
[Verse 3]
Your father's gone a-hunting
Through the silver and the glass
Where only greed can enter
But spirit, spirit cannot pass
[Verse 4]
Your father's gone a-hunting
For the beast he'll never bind
And he leaves a baby sleeping
And his blessings all behind
[Verse 5]
Your father's gone a-hunting
And he's lost his lucky charm
And he's lost the guardian heart
That keeps the hunter from the harm
