Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Hunter's Return (Fess Parker)
Thanks, you guys were right. I just listened to it and the words above are correct, at least for the first verse. Its possible that there was a last verse where he said the voices of thieves,(i seem to remember that for some reason) but in this verse he definitely says

"High flies the goose, my little papoose.
The bright apple falls from the bough.
The trembling leaf knows the north wind's a thief".

The song starts at 5:05 on the you tube video but only runs the first chorus.
