A man came over the lake one winter morning
With a shield of lead and a horse that could not swim
We should have taken that as a warning
It could have been anyone but it was him.
He raised his arm and a thousand voices chanted words of hate
Banners flew and freedom was the cause
I saw the semblance of my father and his son among the crowd
I didn’t want any trouble so I joined the applause. I joined the applause
You might say I never tried to stand up for law and reason
This free rein hunting season can only end…
