Deerslayer Songtext
von DBUK

I was given the heirloom
Of my father′s father's father′s father's father
A hank of rifle that was known as Deerslayer
I put the yearling in my sights
I gut shot the beast
I cried, bent Deerslayer's muzzle
Father laughed, said "There′ll be more, son, you′ll see"

Oh Deerslayer
You bring me pain and misery
Oh Deerslayer
You bring me pain and misery

When I grabbed Deerslayer
Off the rack of my Ford
I misjudged, smacked the hank of stock
Against my truck's door
And then the explosion lit up the whole cab


Kay′s face blushed red
I rolled my eyes towards Deerslayer
Seeing Kay, she were not dead
There was only a slight scratch
On the left lobe of Kay, my wife
If I'd never bent Deerslayer
I might have myself a different life

Oh Deerslayer
You bring me pain and misery
Oh Deerslayer
You bring me pain and misery

Father told stories ′bout the closeness of Slayer
I fit Slayer in my right ear
I would compensate for the bend in the barrel
By holding Deerslayer near
Cleaning mishaps are common 'mongst my people
My wife Kay, she′d be rich
So I removed Deerslayer
Yeah, Kay, she don't deserve it

Oh Deerslayer
You won't end my misery
Oh Deerslayer
You won′t end my misery


I grabbed the hank of stock of Deerslayer
With love to Kay I come
I clubbed Kay close enough to her left ear
Like my father′s must have done
And looking down the muzzle
Deerslayer's now straight
I blushed red through my ear and neck
As I stepped over my wife Kay

Oh Deerslayer
You bring me pain and misery
Oh Deerslayer
Let′s compare our misery

I'll always carry you close to me
