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 trees

I 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
