Badger
It was late in the summer when the corn was fully grown We'd gone for a swim in the pond on my uncle Henry's farm And when we got home we saw a badger in the yard Running flat out for a hole beneath the shed It disappeared into its den underneath the floor And it was gone and Dad just said 'Goddamn Badger can't stay he'll kill you just like that Mean as any grizzly, sneaky as any cat.' And he went and got his gun from the closet in the hall and pulled a 6-pack from the fridge and walked on out the door Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com While Mom made us brush our teeth and get ourselves to bed It's late and he'll be awhile was all that she would say and I saw him in the twilight, his .410 across his lap Sitting in a lawn chair, staring at the shed A fallen soldier from the 6-pack laying at his feet and sometime in the night a gunshot woke me from my sleep It was late in the summer when the corn was fully grown We'd gone for a swim in the pond on my uncle Henry's farm
