High on the mountain what do I seeThere's bear tracks bear tracks lookin' back at meYou better get your rifle boys before it's too lateThat bear's got a little pig and headed for the gateHe's bigger around the middle and he's broad across the rumpRunnin' ninety miles an hour takin' forty feet jumpsAin't never been caught he ain't never been treatSome folks say he looks a lot like me[ banjo ]Well I got me some money and I got me some beesAnd they started makin' honey way up in the treesI chopped down the trees cause my honey's all goneOld Slew foot's done made himself at homeHe's bigger around the middle...Some folks say he looks a lot like daddy[ banjo ]Winter's comin' on and it's forty belowThe river's frozen over so where can he goI'd get me a rifle boys and run him in the wellThen I shoot him in the bottom just to hear him yellHe's bigger around the middle...Some folks say he looks a lot like my Johnny
