Rose Maddox - Ole Slew Foot lyrics

High on the mountain tell me what do you see Bear tracks bear tracks're lookin' back at me You better get your rifles boy before it's too late Cause the bear's got a little big and headed through the gate He's bigger round a middle and he's brought across a rough Runnin' ninety miles an hour takin' thirty feet to jump He never been caught and he ain't never been treat some folks say looks a lot like me [ dobro - steel ] Saved up my money and bought me some bees They started makin' honey way up in the tree I chup down the trees but my honey's all gone Ole slew foot's done made himself a home He's bigger round a middle... [ fiddle ] Well winter's comin' on and it's twenty below The river's frozen over so where can he go We chase him in the golly and we run him in the well And shoot him at the bottom and we listen to him yell He's bigger round a middle... Yeah some folks say looks a lot like me
