From the mountains of Tennessee
To those Minnesota lakes
I hunt and I fish
If I need to get away
If you're findin' faults with me
Moanin' more than I can stand
I tell ya what, for a little while
I'll go see the outdoor plan
'Cause I'll fish when I get hungry
Shoot my guns if I need love
If I wanna breathe a bit better
I'll hit that mountain up above
I'll go huntin' in the mornin'
Once again in the evenin' time
And if I start a-missin' you
I can hit them city lights
I love to watch all them turkeys
When they strut their stuff
And look at them big ol' beavers
Buildin' their dams in the rough
Those deer's always roamin'
'Cross the land
And if you're lucky, you might even see
A big bear track in the sand
'Cause I'll fish when I get hungry
Shoot my guns when I need love
If I wanna breathe a bit better
I hit that mountain up above
I'll go huntin' in the mornin'
Once again in the evenin' time
If I start a-missin' you
I can hit them city lights
From the mountains of Tennessee
To those Minnesota lakes
I hunt and I fish
If I need to get away
If you're findin' faults with me
Moanin' more than I can stand
I tell ya what, for a little while
I'll go see the outdoor plan
'Cause I'll fish when I get hungry
Shoot my guns if I need love
If I wanna breathe a bit better
I'll hit that mountain up above
I'll go huntin' in the mornin'
Once again in the evenin' time
If I start a-missin' you
I can hit them city lights
