The Preacher And The Bear - Rufus Thomas[00:00:00]
A preacher he went huntin'[00:00:14]
It was on a Sunday morning[00:00:17]
Of course it was against his religion[00:00:19]
He took his gun along[00:00:22]
Shot some very fine quail[00:00:25]
One little measly hare[00:00:28]
On his way returning home[00:00:30]
He met a great big grizzly bear[00:00:33]
Bear walked around stood on the ground[00:00:36]
He walked straight to the preacher you see[00:00:38]
Preacher got so excited[00:00:41]
And then he ran up a Sycamore tree[00:00:44]
Bear walked around stood on the ground[00:00:47]
The preacher crawled out on a limb[00:00:50]
Cast his eye to the Lord above[00:00:53]
And these are words he said to Him[00:00:55]
He said "Oh Lord oh Lord Lord[00:00:57]
You delivered Daniel in the lion's den[00:01:09]
Samson strong and the hundred men[00:01:12]
Hebrew children in the furnace of fire"[00:01:15]
"David went to kill the lion[00:01:17]
The good book do declare[00:01:20]
But Lord if they don't help me[00:01:23]
Don't You help this big black bear"[00:01:25]
The preacher stayed up in that tree[00:01:41]
I think it was all night[00:01:44]
Said "Oh Lord if You don't help me[00:01:47]
Treat us both alright"[00:01:49]
Just about that time the limb let go[00:01:52]
The preacher come tumblin' down[00:01:55]
You should've seen him getting that razor out[00:01:58]
Before he struck the ground[00:02:01]
He struck the ground cuttin' left and right[00:02:03]
He put up a very good fight[00:02:06]
About that time the bear told the preacher[00:02:09]
Just hold him a little too tight[00:02:12]
Preacher lost the razor[00:02:14]
Bear held on with the bear[00:02:17]
Cast his eye to the Lord above[00:02:20]
Once more prayed to Him[00:02:23]
He said "Oh Lord oh Lord[00:02:25]
Oh Lord oh oh oh Lord[00:02:31]
You remember Daniel in the lion's den[00:02:48]
Samson strong and the hundred men[00:02:50]
Hebrew children in the furnace of fire"[00:02:53]
"David went to kill old lion[00:02:56]
The good book do declare[00:02:58]
Oh oh oh Lord[00:03:01]
If You if You if You don't help me[00:03:10]
Put a muscle on this big black bear"[00:03:19]
He hurt me[00:03:26]
He hurt me[00:03:30]
He hurt me[00:03:34]
He hurt me[00:03:36]
Somebody help me[00:03:39]
Somebody help me[00:03:42]
Somebody help me[00:03:44]
