Ole Slew Foot

Ole Slew Foot
High on the mountain tell me what do you see
bear tracks bear tracks looking back at me
better get your rifles boy before it's too late
that bear's got a little pig he's headed for the gate

chorus:
Well he's big around the middle and he's broad across the rump running 90 mile an hour take thirty feet a jump
ain't never been caught he ain't never been treed
some folks say he looks a lot like me, some folks say he looks a lot like me

saved me some money and I bought me some bees
started making honey way up in the trees
cut down the tree but the honey's all gone
old slewfoot's done made himself at home

chorus:
Well he's big around the middle and he's broad across the rump running 90 mile an hour take thirty feet a jump
ain't never been caught he ain't never been treed
some folks say he looks a lot like me, some folks say he looks a lot like me

Winter's coming on and it's forty below
the river's froze over now where can he go
we'll chase him up the gulley and we'll run him in the well
shoot him in the bottom just to listen to him yell

chorus:
Well he's big around the middle and he's broad across the rump running 90 mile an hour take thirty feet a jump
ain't never been caught he ain't never been treed
some folks say he looks a lot like me, some folks say he looks a lot like me

chorus:
Well he's big around the middle and he's broad across the rump running 90 mile an hour take thirty feet a jump
ain't never been caught he ain't never been treed
some folks say he looks a lot like me, some folks say he looks a lot like me
