1. The other day, (The other day,) I met a bear, (I met a bear,) A great big bear, (A great big bear,) A way out there! (A way out there!) The other day I met a bear, A great big bear a way out there. 2. He looked at me, I looked at him, He sized up me, I sized up him. 3. And so I ran away from there, But right behind me was that bear. 4. Ahead of me there was a tree, A great big tree, O glory be! 5. The closest branch was ten feet up, I’d have to jump and trust my luck. 6. And so I jumped into the air, But I missed that branch on the way up there. 7. Now don’t you fret, now don’t you frown, ‘Cause I caught that branch on the way back down. 8. That is the end, there ain’t no more, Unless I meet that bear once more. |
