As ah walked one day, in ma way, a bear ah found
E looked starved, as \'is dinner didn\'t wish ta be carved, so ah turned around
Ah \'ad no gun so started ta run but knew it couldn\'t last
One look at me and e could see ah wasn\'t very fast
Didn\'t \'ave time, a tree ta climb, ma \'eart began ta pound
In a rush ran through the brush but e was gaining ground
Thought a death, could smell \'is breath almost on top a me
E grabbed ma leg, ah started ta beg, but \'e didn\'t hear ma plea
Ripping with \'is paw, like a saw, e was all tooth an claw
A terrible fight, oh but how \'e could bite, on ma bones did gnaw
Thought ah was done, the bear \'ad won, but as ya can see
Asked how ah got away, ah have ta say, the bear ate me
