High on the mountain, tell me what you see

Bear tracks, bear tracks, looking back at me

Better get your rifle, boy, before it's too late

'Cause the bear's got a little pig and headed through the gate

He's big around the middle, and he's broad across the rump

Runnin' 90 miles an hour, takin' 30 feet a jump

Ain't never been caught, he ain't ever been treated

Some folks say he looks a lot like me

I saved up my money and I bought me some bees

And they started makin' honey way up in the trees

Cut down the trees, but my honey's all gone

Ole slew foot's done made himself at home

He's big around the middle, and he's broad across the rump

Runnin' 90 miles an hour, takin' 30 feet a jump

Ain't never been caught, he ain't ever been treated

Some folks say he looks a lot like me

Winter's comin' on, and it's 20 below

And the river's froze over, so where can he go?

We'll chase him up the gully, then we'll run him in the well

And shoot him in the bottom just to listen to him yell

He's big around the middle, and he's broad across the rump

Runnin' 90 miles an hour, takin' 30 feet a jump

Ain't never been caught, he ain't ever been treated

Some folks say he looks a lot like me
