The Preacher and The Bear - Phil Harris

Now a Preacher went out walkin'
Twas on one Sunday Morn
It was against his religion
But he took his gun along
He shot himself some mighty fine quail
And one little measly Hare
But on his way returnin'home
He met a great big Grizzly bear.
Now the Bear got won in the middle of the road
On all fours like a great big toad
The Preacher looked at him and started to run
The bear right after that Preacher did come
They ran and they ran for about a mile
Then they both sat down and rested awhile
The Preacher got up and started again
The bear he started out with more vim
They ran and they ran til he spotted a tree
Said up on the limb is the place for me
Preacher leaped up and he made the limb
The bear reached out made a grab for him
He pulled himself up and turned about
Cast his eyes to the skies and he did shout

Oh Lord you delivered Daniel from the lions den
Also delivered Jonah from the belly of the whale
And then
The Hebrew children from the fiery furnace
So the Good Book do declare
So Lord Lord if you can't help me
For goodness sake don't help that bear.

Now just about then the limb let go
And the Preacher came tumbling down
Reached in his pocket pulled his razor out
Just before he hit the ground
He hit the ground with with an awful bang
It was a terrible site
The preacher and the bear with the razor in his hair
Just a'cuttin left and right
Now they rolled around on the ground
The Preacher was up then he was down
The bear let out an awful moan
Looked like the Preacher was holdin his own
He thought if I get out of here alive
By that Good Book I will abide
I'll never sin on Sabbath day and Sunday
Come I'll pray and pray
Then his suspenders gave away
And he knocked that bear ten feet away.
Preacher got up and made a bound
For the tree where he'd be safe and sound
Pulled himself up and turned about
Cast his eyes to the skies
And he did shout.

Oh Lord you delivered Daniel from the Lions den
Also delivered Jonah from the belly of the whale
And then
The Hebrew children from the fiery furnace
So the Good Book do declare
So Lord Lord if you can't help me
For goodness sake don't help that bear.
