They call me the hunter
That's my name
a pretty woman like you
is my only game
I bought me a love gun
just the other day
And I aim
to aim it your way
Ain't no use to hide
ain't no use to run
Cause I've got you in the sights of my love gun.
The first time I saw you Standing on the street
I says to myself
Woo ain't she sweet
I've got my love gun loaded with hugs and kisses
And when I pull the trigger There will be no misses
Ain't no need to hide
ain't no use to run
Cause I've got you in the sights of my love gun.
solo
Ain't no use to hide
ain't no use to run
Cause I've got you in the sights of my love gun.
...I'm the big bad hunter baby
...How can I miss when I've got dead aim
