The Heart Is A Lonely Hunter by Gold Light published on 2018-11-01T21:39:37Z Written by JOE CHANG BEAU CAMPOLONG: Vocals JOE CHANG: Guitars, Bass, Keys, Harmonica NIC JENKINS: Drums LYRICS: Shoulder up your gun whistle up your hounds Early bird might get the worm but the field’s a battleground You’ll always have a puncher’s chance if you can stand another round But it’s gonna take a posse if you wanna drag me down Cus the heart is a lonely hunter it seems But your heart will miss it’s mark if it comes after me Like a dog gone and barked up the wrong tree Cus the heart’s gonna go wherever it please Saddle up your horses don’t forget your map Though where you’re going takes you off the beaten path But keep moving forward boy keep settin’ up them traps Cus once you’ve had a taste of my love you ain’t ever turning back Cus the heart is a lonely hunter it seems But your heart will miss it’s mark if it’s aiming for me Like a shot in the dark you won’t ever see me bleed Cus the heart’s gonna do whatever it please They say you love something you have to set it free But nothing I ever let lose ever come back to me Sometimes I catch your scent coming in on a breeze And baby it drops me to my knees Oh baby please come back to me So shoulder up your gun whistle up your hounds It’s gonna take everything you got if you wanna track me down When you hear them dogs howlin’ somewhere deep within them woods You always got another shot ‘fore you hang your gun up for good Cus the heart is a lonely hunter it seems But your heart will miss it’s mark if you’re aiming for me Looks like your dogs gone and barked up the wrong tree Cus the heart’s gonna go wherever it please Genre Country
