Last fall I hunted white-tail deer
my dog and gun with me
I wandered to a shady grove
where ivy grew dark green
where ivy grew dark green
I raised my gun so carefully
and fired into the trees
then saw it was my true love fell
in a dress of darkest green
a dress of darkest green
her eyes reflected back the moon
as I carried her back to my car
but as I crossed the empty road
was a dead deer in my arms
a dead deer in my arms
next night I rowed upon the waves
to catch a leaping fish
but on the hook my lover’s heart
I pulled from briny depths
I pulled from briny depths
as I lay her cold corpse down
in the bottom of my boat
it was a jumping fish
caught in my nets and rope
caught in my nets and rope
third night I spied a wild boar
charging madly through the trees
but I raised not my gun to her
just let her come to me
just let her run to me
and as I fell in mossy ferns
as her teeth grabbed hold of me
it was the lips of my true love
that kissed me dark and green
kissed me dark and green

The Handsome Family è una coppia musicale americana formatasi a Chicago nel 1993. Il duo, composto da Rennie Sparks (voce, chitarra) e Brett Sparks (chitarra, basso, tastiere), si distingue per un sound alternativo country caratterizzato da atmosfere dark, testi poetici e melodie malinconiche. La loro musica è stata influenzata da cantautori come Townes Van Zandt e Leonard Cohen, ma incorpora anche elementi di folk, blues e rockabilly. The Handsome Family ha pubblicato una decina di album in studio, tra cui "Through the Trees" (1998), "Singing Our Names" (2000) e "Reverie" (2005). Il loro brano più famoso è probabilmente "Far From Any Road", diventato popolare grazie alla sua apparizione nella serie televisiva "Six Feet Under".
