Some folks say there ain't no bears in Arkansas

Some folks never seen a beat at all

Some folks say that bears go around eating babies raw

Some folks got a bear across the hall

Some folks say that bears go around smelling bad

Others say that a bear is a-honey sweet

Some folks say this bear is the best I ever had

Some folks got a bear beneath their feet

Some folks drive the bears out of the wilderness

Some to see a bear would pay a fee

Me, I just bear up to my bewildered best

Some folks even see the bear in me

Some folks drive the bears out of the wilderness

Some to see a bear would pay a fee

Me, I just bear up to my bewildered best

Some folks even see the bear in me

So meet a bear and take him on out to lunch with you

Even though your friends may stop and stare

Just remember that's a bear there in the bunch with you

And they just don't come no better than a bear

So meet a bear and take him on out to lunch with you

Even though your friends may stop and stare

Just remember that's a bear there in the bunch with you

And they just don't come no better than a bear

They just don't come no better than a bear

They just don't come no better

They just don't come no better

They just don't come no better than a bear

Argh!
