lyrics

There’s a moose on the loose and I don’t
Mean to be obtuse but I’m a running just as fast as I can
Must have missed him kind of pissed him when I
Fired my gun now I’m running like the Bionic Man

I’m in a pickle he ain’t fickle now he’s
Gunnin for me and I can almost see the
Whites of his eyes
If I can make it to the lake before he
Tramples my face I just might make it
Out alive

Help me help me
Lord please help me
I didn’t mean to make him so mad
Help me help me
Lord please help me
This might be the worst day I’ve ever had

Eight days I stayed and strayed in the woods
Hunting for the moose of my dreams
Then I heard somethin’ hearts a pumpin’ he comes
Humpin’ along biggest critter I’d ever seen

There was barely any light when I
Got him in my sights and I
Pulled that trigger down before you
Knew it man I blew it now he’s gunning for me
And I’m a runnin’ at the speed of sound

Help me help me
Lord please help me I sure could use a pair of wings
Help me help me
Lord please help me I promise I’ll do anything
I’ll cut the grass, I’ll
Take out the trash
Bad vices will all disappear
You get me out of this alive
I promise you that I’ll
Even stop drinking beer well, maybe....

I was almost out of gas I didn’t
know how long I’d last when I
Reached the lake and jumped right in well now the
Moose was all confus-ed cause he really wasn’t
Used to seeing someone hanging out on a limb

So there I was a hangin’ from a
Big old branch a dangling on the
End of that big oak limb
‘Cause the thing that I forgot that ever
Since I was a tot, I
Never learned how to swim

Save me save me Lord please save me
I’ve lost my grip and I’m going down
Save me save me Lord please save me
A few more seconds I’m gonna drown

I finally lost my grip began to
Slip into the drip that’s when that Moose looked down at me well it might
Sound parapetetic but I
Looked so darn pathetic that the
Moose felt sorry for me

So he jumped in ‘cause he could swim and
I hopped on and rode along and
Kissed and hugged him for my rescue
That’s when she woke me up she handed
Me my coffee cup and my
Friend the moose is still on the loose
