Well, like to explain to you all I ain't no man I tried it once and it got me irregular And I I'd never do it again I promised my brother in-law that I'd go up watch his he went in to town to vote It was right up on the Where the map it would be Friends let me tell you one it wasn't no ordinary still It stood up on that Like a hugh golden
God's yeller moon shinin' on the cool evenin' little lanterns twinklin' on and off in the heavens Like I to you once before I ain't no drinkin' man But got the best of me And I a slash That yella runnin' down my throat Like honey dew vine
And I took slash Took another'n an another'n an For you knew I'd downed one whole jug of that And to gettin' hot flashes Goose was runnin' up and down my body And a feelin' came me Like somethin' I'd never before It was like, I was in love In love for the first time, with anything that Animate, it didn't matter It's like there's a great sign flashin' on an' off In my brain sayin' "Jimmy Buffett there's a day a comin'" I was drunk I wasn't crawlin', slip slidin', Reggie Youngin' Commode drunk
I was God's own and a fearless man And when I first saw the bear He was a Kodiak lookin' fella nineteen feet tall He rambled up the hill Expectin' me to do one of two Flip or fly, I do either one It him up
He started sniffin' my body tryin' to smell fear But he ain't gonna smell no 'cause I'm God's own drunk and a man It him up He looked right in my eyes, and my Was a lot than his was It him up
So I him, I said "Mr. Bear, I love Every hair on your twenty-seven body I know you got a lot of over there On the side of the hill There's ole' rare bear, tall bear, bear, Kelly bear Really bear, the bear, smokey the bear Pokey the I want you to go back there tonight And tell I'm feelin' right You tell I love each and everyone of them a brother and a sister
But if they me any trouble tonight I'm gonna run God damn one of them off the hill" He took two backwards and didn't know what to think Neither did I but bein' charitable and hell I approached him again I said "Mr. Bear, You know in the eyes of the We're both beasts when it comes down to it
So I you to be my buddy, Buddy bear" So I took ole' buddy bear by his size paw And I led him over to the He's a sniffin' around thing cause He's somethin' good I him one of them jugs of honey dew vine water He it up right Looked like one of them damn bears in the
Sippin' in the moonlight I gave him another'n an another'n an For I knew it he downed eight of And commenced to doin' the bear Two snips, a snort, a fly turn, and a It was so like the jitter bug It evaded me
We worked ourselves into a uproar And I was tired and went over to the hillside And I laid down and to sleep Slept for four hours and dreampt me tremulous dreams When I woke up, there was God's moon Shinin' on the clear cool
little lanterns twinklin' on and off In the My the bear was a missin' to know something else friends and neighbors So was still
