lyrics

A hatchet is a hell of a blade
Takes a stone to make it shine
Who's the one in the gingham dress
What will it take to make her mine

Took a trip to Michigan
Camped along the Bissell Creek
She was there with some friends
Making it so hard to breathe

Stole a glance through the pines
What a lovely sight to see
They catch my eye and I turn away
I know they must be laughing at me

Grandpa taught me everything
Showed me how to make steel sharp
How to track a wounded doe
Showed me how to move in the dark

I got the courage to introduce myself
Asked if they'd like company
Never even met my eyes
But I'm the one who cannot see

A hatchet is a hell of a blade
Takes a stone to make it shine
Who's the one in the gingham dress
What will it take to make her mine
