The other day The Bear Song
I saw a bear
Out in the woods
Away out there
The other day I saw a bear out in the woods away out there (together)
He looked at me
I looked at him
He sized up me
I sized up him
He looked at me, I looked at him, He sized up me, I sized up him (together)
He said to me
Why don’t you run
I see you ain’t
Got any gun
He said to me why don’t you run, I see you ain’t got any gun (together)
I said to him
That’s a good idea
So come on feet
Lets up and flee
I said to him that’s a good idea so come on feet lets up and flee (together)
And so I ran
Away from there
But right behind
Me was that bear
And so I ran away from there, but right behind me was that bear (together)
And then I see
Ahead of me
A great big tree
Oh glory be
And then I see ahead of me, a great big tree oh glory be (together)
The lowest branch
Was ten feet up
I’d have to jump
And trust my luck
The lowest branch was ten feet up, I’d have to jump and trust my luck (together)
And so I jumped
Into the air
But I missed that branch
Away up there
And so I jumped into the air, but I missed that branch away up there (together)
Now don’t you fret
And don’t you frown
For I caught that branch
On the way back down
Now don’t you fret and don’t you frown for I caught that branch on the way back down (together)
The moral of
This story is
Da Da Da dee
Dee Dee Dee dum
The moral of this story is Da Da Dee, Dee, Dee, Dee Dum (together)
That all there is
There ain’t no more
Unless I meet
That bear once more
That’s all there is there ain’t no more, unless I meet that bear once more (together)
