THE OTHER DAY I MET A BEAR



(Note: Group (G) follow leader (L), then both (B))



L: The other day

G: The other day

L: I met a bear

G: I met a bear

L: Up in the woods

G: Up in the woods

L: A way up there

G: A way up there

B: The other day I met a bear, up in the woods away

up there



I looked at him... He looked at me...I sized up

him...He sized up me...



He said to me...Why don't you run...I see you ain't

... Got any gun



And so I ran .. Away from there .. And right behind

.. Me was that bear



And then I saw .. Ahead of me .. A great big tree ..

Oh, Lordy me



The nearest branch .. Was ten feet up.. I'd have to

jump .. And trust to luck



And so I jumped .. Into the air .. I missed that

branch .. Away up there



Now don't you fret .. And don't you frown .. Cause I

caught that branch .. On the way back down



That's all there is .. There ain't no more .. Unless

I meet .. That bear once more
