The Preacher and the Bear Ray Stevens

The Preacher and the Bear - Ray Stevens
Well, the preacher went out walkin', it was on one Sunday morn
It was against his religion, but he took his gun along
Shot himself some mighty fine quail and one little measly hare
And on his way returning home, he met a great big grizzly bear
Well, the bear got down in the middle of the road
On all fours like a great big toad
Looked that preacher right square in the eye
The preacher said "hello" and "bye-bye"
Down the road, the preacher did run
The bear right after that preacher did come
He ran and he ran for about a mile
Then they both sat down and rested a while
Preacher got up, started running again
So did the bear, and he was gaining on him
He ran and he ran 'til he spotted a tree
Said, "Up on a limb is the place to be"
The bear got close, made a grab for him
But the preacher leaped up and he made the land
Pulled himself up and turned about
Cast his eyes to the heavens and he did shout
Oh Lord (Oh Lord), you delivered Daniel from the lion's den
(From the lion's den)
Oh Lord (Oh Lord), you delivered Jonah from the belly of the whale and then
(And then)
The Hebrew children from the fiery furnace so the good book does declare
So Lord (Oh Lord), if you can't help me
For goodness sakes, don't help that bear
