One foot hopping,
One foot go,
Through the muddy bog below.

Run if you can,
Run if you might,
Or turn on the hunters and fight.

One eye watching,
One eye blind,
Keep pitfall and ambush to mind.

Run if you can,
Run if you may,
The hunters will catch you today.

One ear deaf,
One ear hears,
Silence your breath and your tears.

Run if you can,
Run in the mud,
The hunters are coming for blood.

One house empty,
One house bright,
Safety appears in the night.

Run if you can,
Run in the door,
The butcher is waiting for more.
