You stand by the window, in the early morning light
And you try to look sweet, as he comes walking by
He will smile and you will wave, and you’ll be thinking of him all day
You want so to be with him, but they say you can’t
Cause that lady down the street, put a ring on his hand
But you will try to make him see, you’re the one who can make him happy
Oh you will try to make him see, you’re the one who can make him happy
You go to the bar where you know he’ll be
You take him by the arm and you tell him how you feel
He will laugh at you and decline, your offer to become his wife
But down in the meadow, where hе always goes
With a well hidden bеar trap, he will finally be yours
It will rip his pretty legs apart, but you will still have his heart
Oh it will rip his pretty legs apart, but you will still have his heart
Drag him to the cabin, hang him on the wall
Let him slowly bleed out on the dirty wooden floor
In a few hours he will die, but you do get to talk a while
Gut him and clean him like your father did with birds
With stuffing and oils he will be well preserved
Now he’s as handsome as he was alive, and he will always be by your side
Oh he’s as handsome as he was alive, and he will always be by your side
Oh my lover don’t you know, I will never let you go
