Snare and deadfall, pit and noose
Drive your quarry where you choose
Baffle them with trick and ruse
Snare and deadfall, pit and noose
Snares are meant to catch and hold
Loop of vine with knot to hide it
Placed just where the overbold
Stick a foot or head inside it
Hook it to a counter weight
Or a young and sturdy sapling
Use their manly pride as bait
Catch them with its sudden grappling
Snare and deadfall, pit and noose
Drive your quarry where you choose
Net them so they can"t get loose
Snare and deadfall, pit and noose
Deadfalls kill the prey with weight
Dropping down from high above them
Make it look like act of fate
Rocks and limbs with none to show them
Carve the triggers out with care
Hide them so that none can see them
Greased with fat from boar or bear
So the slightest touch will free them
Snare and deadfall, pit and noose
Drive your quarry where you choose
Lost without a hope or clue
Snare and deadfall, pit and noose
Hidden pits for them to tread
Drop them down to kill or maim them
Men can"t fight if they are dead
Men march slower if you lame them
Line the holes with wooden spikes
Harden tips within the fire
Row on row like warrior"s spikes
Give them more than they desire
Snare and deadfall, pit and noose
Drive your quarry where you choose
Dead men cannot carry news
Snare and deadfall, pit and noose
Lead them on and lead them long
Make it look like nature"s crafting
Fear and greed will drive them on
Bite your tongue to keep from laughing
Let them think they"ve won the war
While the noose draw ever tighter
Deadly though these brigands are
Traps can take the toughest fighter
Snare and deadfall, pit and noose
Drive your quarry where you choose
With no choice except to lose
