Sweeter Than The Rain

My hunter's heart may not be merciless But on this day of freezing snow It's as cold as the heart of the ice princess Who didn't want to know I take my orders, ask few questions It's no real life for a decent man Few clear cut lines or regulations Low on prospects and future plans If you should hearken to the devil's bidding Perchance you'll bring me work to do It may not be my heart's true calling But I will surely come for you To you who live by rape and plunder I'll shoot or hang with scant remorse My Old Reliable the avenging thunder Else my rope and faithful horse Your late companion in haste repented I had him take a ride with me Through this poor country he had so tormented Until we came to the highest tree He did reveal in his confession That you were making for the train This bitter snow will soon be melting And nothing sweeter than the rain
