I took two shots, got no ducks and cold, cold

hands

Last night while Mike and I were out drinking

Trying to have

good time

The lady with whom I was speaking

Thought I was feeding her some old line

When I spoke of a cold winter^?s morning

duckblind and

river of gray

The sound of the snow softly falling

When I thought I heard somebody say

I took two shots, got no ducks

And cold, cold hands

I could tell by the gaze of my comrades

That I was the one who had spoke

Their eyes held a message of patience

The thrill of the hunt and of hope

But when I spoke again how they listened

For the wisdom of what I might say

If the good Lord had meant us to shoot one

He^?d surely send more ducks our way

I took two shots, got no ducks

And cold, cold hands

(spoken)

Well the lady with whom I was speaking

She laughed lightly and she wandered away

My heart like the snow in my story

Fell silent I^?d hoped she would stay

(sing)

It^?s so nice to talk to some body

To find someone who^?s willing to share

I know that this life is worth living

But sometimes it just isn^?t fair

I took two shots, got no ducks

And cold, cold hands

I took two shots, got no ducks

And cold, cold hands
