Ducks, Deer & Bad Choices

off at half past four Got two alarms, one for work, one for outdoors Guess which one gets snoozed again? And which one sends me to the woods with friends? Bills on the table, grass knee, high truck, no do When my tag's still dry, boss keeps saying we need you, son I just not smile, buy more shotgun I know I should grow up in there I'm stuck on that page, it's ducks, deer and bat choices But on my boots, not answering voices I should be paying bills, fixing that sink But I'm waist deep in a river, trying not to think Got a freezer half full, and a life off course Calling in sick while I'm saddled on a horse keep losing to these noises. Shotguns, grunt calls, ducks, deer in bad choices. Mama says boys settle down, save some cash While I'm online bidding on a new duck stash Girlfriend say we should talk, maybe plan I said baby can we make it to the off-season man Got a tux on hold for a friend's big day But it's peak rut week in the bucks halfway Check some traffic with a guilty grin While I'm 30 feet up in a tree stand again I ain't proud of every little thing I skip But that sunrise hits different through a foggy lake Bad choices, tree stand views Overwetting voices I should be growing up Settlin' down nice But I'm out here blowin' On a call made of ice Got a credit card cryin' In a happy horse Boat prints all over my straightened up course When Cosbuck snorts ducks, they're in bad choices I'll trade this camel for a minivan, coat some ballgames, be a better man, but till that day when my wild streak fades, you'll find me where the dumb decisions get made. It's ducks, deer, and bats' choices, blaming all the woods and the hunters' voices. I should be paying debts, sweeping my floor, but I'm knee-deep in brush, near a fresh rub score. Yeah, I might be late to the grown-name court, I know these woods restore us Till life drags me in with its grown-up voices I'll be out here chasing ducks, ducks, daring bad choices, ducks, daring bad choices
