Early morning light, mist dancing on the pond,
Got my gear packed tight, it’s where I feel so fond,
In the apple orchard, where the trees stand tall,
I’m waiting for that moment, gotta give it my all.
Oh, I’m a turkey hunter, on a quest today,
Chasing after dreams, in the light of dawn’s sway,
When I spot that rare one, with feathers so fine,
A smoky grey beauty, it’s my moment to shine.
The call of the wild, echoing through the air,
With my heart pounding hard, I’m caught in a stare,
By the edge of the pond, there it struts with grace,
I take a deep breath, it’s my time to embrace.
Oh, I’m a turkey hunter, on a quest today,
Chasing after dreams, in the light of dawn’s sway,
When I spot that rare one, with feathers so fine,
A smoky grey beauty, it’s my moment to shine.
Quiet as a whisper, I line up my shot,
This isn’t just luck, it’s the thrill that I’ve sought,
With the crack of the gun, the world holds its breath,
In this apple orchard, I’ll capture the rest.
The smoky grey turkey, it falls by the pond,
A trophy of nature, a memory so fond,
I raise up my head, feeling pride in my heart,
In the beauty of this moment, I’ve played my part.
Feeling lucky today, I stop by the store,
Grab a lottery ticket, can’t hurt to explore,
Later that evening, I check what I’ve won,
A jackpot surprise—man, what a day I’ve begun!
Oh, I’m a turkey hunter, on a quest today,
Chasing after dreams, in the light of dawn’s sway,
When I spot that rare one, with feathers so fine,
A smoky grey beauty, it’s my moment to shine.
So here’s to the mornings spent out in the field,
With the thrill of the hunt and the joy it reveals,
In the apple orchard, where memories stay,
I’ll treasure this moment, come what may.
