Black Bear

Black bear, I'm not afraid of you
I've known these woods all my life
And you're friendly when you want to be
Why wouldn't want to be?

She was to be my wife
And I was to be her bride
But that's all right
It's all right

Black bear, I can't believe it's true
I've known this town my whole life
And you're family when you want to be
Why wouldn't you want to be?

She was to be my wife
And I was to be her bride
But that's all right
It's all right

Well I heard someone sing on the radio
Who sounded like someonе that I used to know
And I can't help feeling a little lonеly
'Cause ain't no one calling on me no more

Black bear, I will remain with you
I couldn't leave this town if I tried
Ain't it funny how things used to be?
Do you remember how things used to be?
