the preacher and the bear
Singer:ray stevens
the preacher went out a huntin'
it was on one sunday morn'
it was against his religion
but he took a shotgun along
he got himself a mess a' mighty fine quail and one old scraggly hare
and on the way home he crossed the path of a great big grizzly bear
well the bear got down lookin' ready to charge
the preacher never seen nothin' quite that large
they looked each other right smack in the eye
didn't take that preacher long to say bye
the preacher he run till he spotted a tree
he said up in that tree's where i auta be"
