Birds Headin' South

from Gospo Feel by Willie Wisely

/

lyrics

Comes the time it’s getting cold
Buckeye would up and hit the road
Hunting grouse, hunting duck
Buck never had luck

Buckeye was a dad
He’d be one lousy dad to have
His boy Bo might come along
If he took him from his mom

Sure hunting for something
Sure shooting for something else
Ain’t bagged nuts today
The birds heading south

Raining off and on
Maybe Buckeye slipped and dropped his gun
They matched the powder burns
Bo had fallen in the ferns

Motives aren’t clear
An accident, an act of beer
Buck put the rifle to his mouth
While the birds are heading south

Sure hunting for something
Sure shooting for something else
Ain’t bagged nuts today
The birds heading south
