The Elk's Tear

The Elk's Tear
     One fine day, 
    He killed an elk,
     Then went, 
     To put it on the shelf,
    He saw a tear, 
     Fall from it's eye,
    He cried,
     Oh Good Lord,
    What have i done?
     I'm sorry,
    I took away your fun,
     And from that day on,
    He never wore a gun.
