My Daddy was a hunter when he was ten years old He'd saddle up and ride out alone, in the Saskatchewan cold Gone for three or four days in the bush near Waskesiu With his 303, on his back, he knew what to do Because his Daddy was a farmer and a poker player man too One thing he learned is when the tables turned man You best know what to do You gotta back it up baby Tell it like it is You don't take no lip from some little drip Tryin to get what ain't his So you roll em over and you make the turn The river's comin down So you bet the best cause you know you got 'em And then you lay 'em on down My momma was a teacher in a one room country school Only 17 and every grade she had to rule Her Daddy was a farmer probably never should have been By the time their homestead started out he was tired and wearin' thin But he knew his way around cattle from his ranching days down south And he loved to sing but I never got to hear a word come from his mouth He loved to sing but I never got to hear a word come from his mouth You gotta back it up baby Tell it like it is You don't take no lip from some little drip Tryin to get what ain't his So you roll em over and you make the turn The river's comin down So you bet the best cause you know you got 'em And then you lay 'em on down And you watch 'em drown My momma was a teacher my papa he's a hunting man When the time come to get together it was hand in hand. So you roll em over and you make the turn The river's comin down So you bet the best cause you know you got 'em And you lay 'em on down And you watch 'em drown Watch em drown
