Slew Foot |
| Coming down the mountain boys what do I see |
| Bear tracks bear tracks coming after me |
| Better get your rifle before it’s too late |
| The bear’s got a pig and he’s headed for the gate |
| He’s big around the middle and he’s broad across the rump |
| Making ninety miles an hour taking thirty feet a jump |
| He ain’t never been caught he ain’t never been treed |
| Some folks say he looks a lot like me |
| I took all my money and I bought me some bees |
| They started making honey way up in the treesI cut down the tree but my |
| honey’s all gone |
| Old Slew Foot done made himself at home |
| The winter time’s coming and it’s twenty below |
| The river’s froze over, where can he go |
| We’ll chase him up the holler, run him in the well |
| And shoot him in the bottom just to listen to him yell |
