I Think I Could Be Good Friends With A Bear

lyrics

I think I could be good friends with a bear
Me and my bear would go everywhere
He'll keep me warm when I get cold
He'll tell me jokes when I get old
I think I could be good friends with a bear

We'll I'm all fed up with the 9 to 5
And I wanna go out and feel alive
Wanna get a log cabin on a patch of land
I want to be a real hardcore mountain man
But when you're out in the great unknown
The strongest man can feel alone
I think I could be good friends with a bear

I think I could be good friends with a bear
Me and my bear would go everywhere
No one there but me and a bear
We'd really make an awesome pair
I think I could be good friends with a bear

Day to day, we live amongst the trees
It's just my big ol' bear and me
We go to the river and have a drink
And we don't have to care what people think
They've no idea how cool it feels
To hang with a bear and share your meals
I think I could be good friends with a bear

I think I could be good friends with a bear
Me and my bear would go everywhere
Just my big ol' bear and me
There is no better company
I think I could be good friends with a bear

Me and my bear are thick as thieves
We roll around and play in the Autumn leaves
We swim in a lake when the sun is hot
And knows all the good fishin' spots
And when it gets real cold and late
We'll curl up by the fire and hibernate
I think I could be good friends with a bear

I think I could be good friends with a bear
Me and my bear would go everywhere
With my bear I can do no wrong
And he knows the words to all my songs
I think I could be good friends with a bear

And when I'm old and poor of health
I know I won't be by myself
I'll have my bear to keep me company
And when I slip these surly bonds
He'll let a growl out when I'm gone
I think I could be good friends with a bear

I think I could be good friends with a bear
Me and my bear we'll go everywhere
We'll live like kings on the fat of the land
Just a big fat bear and a little old man
I think I could be good friends with a bear

He'll bring me up when I get down
We'll hit the beach and drive through town
I think I could be good friends with a bear
