High up on the mountain tell me what you see
|
Bear tracks bear tracks are lookin' back at me
|
Better get your rifle boy before it's too late
|
The bear's got a little big and headed through the gate
|
He's big around the middle and he's broad across the rump
|
Doin' ninety miles an hour takin' thirty feet a jump
|
He ain't never been caught and he ain't never been treed
|
Some folks say he looks a lot like me

|
I saved up my money and bought me some bees
|
They started makin' honey way up in the trees
|
I cut down my tree and my honey's all gone
|
Ole Slew Foot's done made himself at home
|
He's big around the middle...
|

|
Winter's comin' on and it's twenty below
|
The river's froze over so where can he go
|
We'll chase him up the gully and we'll run him in the well
|
We shoot him at the bottom and we'll listen to him yell
|
He's bigger round a middle...
