Trapper
Verse 1
Well the snow sets in
Ice on the river thin
Passes are closed
As everything freezes
Verse 2
They say he has a house
Simple timber and dirt floor
Way up on the ridge
With his Indian squaw
Chorus
Trapper ….......
Man of the mountains
Trapper …......
Man of the mountains
Your almost a ghost
As you wander in and out
Verse 3
We see him in town
Once in a while
Trading his pelts
For living supplies
Verse 4
His name unknown
As is his age
He hardly speaks
To give us his lineage
Chorus
Trapper ….......
Man of the mountains
Trapper …......
Man of the mountains
Your almost a ghost
As you wander in and out
Verse 5
Some say he is a murderer
Some say he is a thief
He does nothing
To steer their belief
Verse 6
He has become a legend
A celebrity in these parts
Just a rye grin
For those that ask
Chorus
Trapper ….......
Man of the mountains
Trapper …......
Man of the mountains
Your almost a ghost
As you wander in and out
Verse 7
He will die on the mountain
Be buried in snow
Surrounded by the life he loves
In the place he calls home
Chorus
Trapper ….......
Man of the mountains
Trapper …......
Man of the mountains
Your almost a ghost
As you wander in and out
