Louie Louie |
| 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 o' 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 oughta be» |
| By the time that bear made a grab for him |
| The preacher was a sittin' on top a that limb |
| Scared to death, he turned about |
| He looked to the sky and began to shout |
| «Hey lord, you delivered Daniel from the bottom of the lion’s den |
| You delivered Jonah from the belly of the whale and then |
| The Hebrew children from the fiery furnace |
| So the good books do declare |
| Hey lord, if you can’t help me |
| For goodness sake don’t help that bear» |
| Yea, look out preacher! |
| Well, about that time the limb broke off |
| And the preacher came tumblin' down |
| Had a straight razor out of his pocket |
| By the time he lit on the ground |
| He landed on his feet right in front a that bear |
| And Lord, what an awful fight |
| The preacher and the bear and the razor and the hair |
| Flyin' from left to right |
| Well first they was up and then they was down |
| The preacher and the bear runnin' round an' round |
| The bear he roared, and the the preacher he groaned |
| He was havin' a tough time holdin' his own! |
| He said, «Lord if I get out a here alive |
| To the good book I’ll abide |
| No more huntin' on the Sabbath day |
| Come Sunday I’m headin' to the church to pray» |
| Up to the heavens the preacher glanced |
| He said, «Lord won’t you give me just one more chance» |
| So the preacher got away, he looked around |
| Seen a tree where he’d be safe and sound |
| Jumped on a limb, turned about |
| Looked to the sky and began to shout |
| «Hey lord, you delivered Daniel from the bottom of the lion’s den |
| You delivered Jonah from the belly of the whale and then |
| The Hebrew children from the fiery furnace |
| So the good books do declare |
| Hey lord, if you can’t help me |
| For goodness sake don’t help that bear» |
