Bear Song

Lyrics

The other day, I met a bear,
Out in the woods, away out there. ''[Point.]''
Chorus:
(Same lines in unison)

He looked at me, I looked at him,
He sized up me, I sized up him.

He says to me, "Why don't you run?"
"'Cause I can see, you have no gun."

And so I ran, away from there,
But right behind, me was that bear.

And on the path ahead of me,
I saw a tree, Oh glory be.

The lowest branch was ten feet up,
I'd have to jump and trust my luck.

And so I jumped into the air,
But I missed that branch away up there.

Now don't you fret, and don't you frown,
I caught that branch on the way back down.

That's all there is, there ain't no more,
Unless I meet that bear once more.

Tune

Sung to the tune of "Sipping Cider Through a Straw"
