My dad turned eighty-four this week And he sure is a 'hoot!' He went dove hunting with us Wearing just his 'birthday suit!' Before you judge him, honestly, I'll quickly tell you this, We took him to the Wal*Mart store And bought 'it' from our list! The first thing that we purchased was A camouflaged t-shirt! Then pants with leaves and sticks And such, the color of real dirt! We finally covered up his head... A new camouflaged hat! We tried to take his picture, but, We couldn't find where he was at! He finally grinned a big old grin That gave himself away! And every price tag, still intact, Showed what we had to pay! It didn't slow the huntin' down For David, him or me! Dad didn't shoot much any way... Just sat there like a tree! A time that we won't soon forget A very special 'shoot!' We each took turns a laughin' at Dad in his birthday suit!
