[Verse 1]
I'm gonna shine up my boots, pick out my best hat
Goin' to a place called the Ol' Brier Patch
I'm gonna get loose and I'm gonna have fun
Gonna go huntin' but I won't need a gun now

[Verse 2]
Well, the season is always open and there ain't no limit, you see
They can be more challenging than a rocky mountain sheep
I have hunted them 4-legged deer but the 2-legged are a lot more fun
I'm gonna go huntin' tonight, Lord, I ain't takin' no gun

[Chorus]
'Cause the kind of game I'm looking for is not that hard to snare
But they can be more dangerous than a big ol' grizzly bear
They got long claws, long legs and a skin already tanned in the sun
I'm gonna go huntin' tonight, Lord, but I ain't takin' no gun

[Verse 3]
Now those big ol' beautiful wildcats are the kind that are hard to track
'Cause the joint is crawlin' with the other hunters and the she-cat's doublin' back
Now is the time for patience, don't fire on the first one
Don't waste your bullets on a little-bitty baby, get a full grown wo-wo-woman

[Chorus]
Hey the kind of game I'm talkin' about is not that hard to snare
But they can be more dangerous than a big ol' grizzly bear
They got long claws, long legs and their skin's already tanned in the sun
I'm gonna go huntin' tonight, boy, but I ain't takin' no gun
[Outro]
Yeah, I'm talkin' about huntin' tonight, Lord
But no light, no gun
