Who goes out a-trapping and then tails their hide
Once I was shaven and worked every day
They're singing a song about Cookie McBride
There's pals at my table and mud on the floor
On my way to an unhappy grave
Who will remember the money you saved?
But the call of the wild just lured me away
On my way to an unmarked grave
The searchers will come and discover your hide
On my way to a rain filled grave
On your way to an unhappy grave
High, wet and hanging like Cookie McBride
On my way to an unmarked grave
Hi, hi, ho, it's a water a day
Hi, hi, hey, it's a water a day
There's bears in the area and wolves at the door
Hi, hi, hey, it's a water a day
Hi, hi, hey, it's a water a day
So if you're planning a natural trip
I'm in over your head
Don't call up snooping on burial ridge
Hi, hi, hey, it's a water a day
Singing hi, hi, ho, it's a water a day
