[Verse] One day I walked the road and crossed a field to go by where the hounds ran hard. And on the master raced: behind the hunters chased to where the path was barred. One fine young lady’s horse refused the fence to clear. I unlocked the gate but she did wait until the pack had disappeared. [Verse] Crop handle carved in bone; sat high upon a throne of finest English leather. The queen of all the pack this joker raised his hat and talked about the weather. All should be warned about this high born Hunting Girl. She took this simple man’s downfall in hand; I raised the flag that she unfurled. [Chorus] Boot leather flashing and spurnecks the size of my thumb. This highborn hunter had tastes as strange as they come come. Unbridled passion: I took the bit in my teeth. Her standing over --- me on my knees underneath underneath. [Verse] My lady be discrete.I must get to my feet and go back to the farm. Whilst I appreciate you are no deviate I might come to some harm. I’m not inclined to acts refined if that’s how it goes. Oh high born Hunting Girl I’m just a normal low born so and so.

À propos de la chanson

Dans cette chanson, un homme se trouve confronté à une jeune aristocrate lors d'une chasse. Alors qu'il traverse un champ, il assiste à la scène où la jeune femme ne parvient pas à franchir un obstacle. Il lui ouvre alors une porte, mais elle semble plus intéressée par la chasse que par lui. Ce personnage, décrit comme élégant et hautain, exerce une certaine fascination mais aussi une insécurité sur notre protagoniste, qui se sent dévalorisé par sa situation sociale. La chanson évoque ainsi une dynamique entre deux mondes : celui de la noblesse avec ses codes et ses passions, et celui des gens ordinaires, illustrant le malaise et l'admiration qu'éprouve l'homme face à la Hunting Girl, embodiment de la beauté et du raffinement, mais aussi de l'inaccessibilité.
