Always On the Hunt Songtext
von Gerry Wall

I am always on the hunt
For trouble and opportunity
You don′t know the wrong I have done
And when I've got you made
I′ll make you think I'm bringing aid
The only thing I'm bringing is betrayed.

My friends tell me I′m too hard on myself
Let it go, they may be right
But where I′m from there is no-one but yourself
To see you through.


I got my start at the bottom of the pile
Another grunt to take the shite
I just smiled as I did what I was told
And then I moved, I made a move.

Right from the start they called me banjo boy
Even though I didn't play
They lived a life of tricks behind my back
But I could see.

Then one day they put a hurt on me
We all know how kids can be
I asked them once "please don′t do that to me"
And I didn't ask again.

My friends tell me I′m too hard on myself
Let it go, they may be right
But where I'm from there is no-one but yourself
To see you through.
