Into the woods with a pack and a blade A cigar ton, med kit, retractable spade Flint and steel, pine needle bed There ain't nothin' like the woods to clear your head I got a real nice piece with a handle of bone A good friend to have when you're out on your own But you don't miss twice When you're shavin' with a knife Coarse grain sandpaper on my face Felt my neck and reached for my blade Thought I'd try my hand at the barber's trade When you've got a knife, you've got it made Bathing in the river it ain't half bad You get a cool drink while you're taking a bath
You stick your blade in the water and there's you lather, yeah But you don't miss twice When you're shavin' with a knife Stubble's comin' in strong, scratch your soft skin raw Like a mean mutt with a razor maw Swipe along my neck and against my jaw Blood's just blood, no need to fuss Or get your shorts in a bunch and cuss and cuss Still you don't miss twice When you're shavin' with a knife But you don't miss twice When you're shavin', when you're shavin' When you're shavin' with a knife
