lyrics

There's a big black bear
Way up in the woods
And he likes little boys
He likes to eat 'em too

Well these little boys they had a plan
They thought they'd bring that bear some ham
The bear didn't like it, he didn't care
He likes little boys, very rare

There's a big black bear
Way up in the woods
And he likes little boys
He likes to eat 'em too

Well these little boys they tried again
They tried to bring themselves a friend
Well the friend didn't like it he was too scared
He didn't want to be food for a bear

There's a big black bear
Way up in the woods
And he likes little boys
He likes to eat 'em too
