The Bear Song

The other day
[repeat]
I met a bear
[repeat]
Out in the woods
[repeat]
A-way up there
[repeat]
The other day I met a bear
Out in the woods a-way up there

(continue the same format for the following verses)

He said to me
Why don't you run
'Cause I see you ain't
Got any gun

And so I ran
Away from there
But right behind
Me was that bear

Ahead of me
There was a tree
A great big tree
Oh golly be

The nearest branch
Was 10 feet up
I had to jump
And press my luck

And so I jumped
Into the air
But I missed that branch
A-way up there

But don't you fret
And don't you frown
'Cause I caught that branch
On the way back down

The moral of
This story be
If you meet a bear
You need a tree!
