Huntin Nuttin
“Huntin Nuttin”
By Dane Smith-Johnsen
Hush up! We be huntin’
Ain’t seen no nuttin’ yet.
I wont me some muten.
Geet dat dere tree stan' set.
Sho wheel be glad ta see
Dis yers buck a-runnin.
Watch out fer dat dair bee
Stingin' sho ain’t singin’.
Da possum, whire she be?
Over yander. Ya see?
Been dere nelly a week.
Hangin'. Huntin' nuttin'.
Why WE huntin nuttin?
Lez go bi my muten.
