[00:13.24] A preacher, he went huntin'
[00:15.87] It was on a Sunday morn'
[00:18.71] Of course it was against his religion
[00:21.54] He took his gun along
[00:24.22] Shot some very fine quail
[00:27.10] One little measly hare
[00:29.83] On his way returning home
[00:32.46] He met a great big grizzly bear
[00:35.40] Bear walked around, stood on the ground
[00:37.93] He walked straight to the preacher, you see
[00:40.86] Preacher got so excited
[00:43.56] And then he ran up a Sycamore tree
[00:46.35] Bear walked around, stood on the ground
[00:49.14] The preacher crawled out on a limb
[00:51.96] Cast his eye to the Lord above
[00:54.49] And these are words he said to Him
[00:57.04] He said, "Oh Lord, oh, Lord, Lord
[01:08.62] You delivered Daniel in the lion's den
[01:11.21] Samson strong and the hundred men
[01:14.04] Hebrew children in the furnace of fire"
[01:16.87] "David went to kill the lion
[01:19.71] The good book do declare
[01:22.43] But Lord, if they don't help me
[01:25.13] Don't You help this big black bear"
[01:40.56] The preacher stayed up in that tree
[01:42.98] I think it was all night
[01:46.02] Said, "Oh Lord, if You don't help me
[01:48.54] Treat us both alright"
[01:51.66] Just about that time the limb let go
[01:54.32] The preacher come tumblin' down
[01:57.34] You should've seen him getting that razor out
[02:00.03] Before he struck the ground
[02:02.91] He struck the ground cuttin' left and right
[02:05.49] He put up a very good fight
[02:08.37] About that time the bear told the preacher
[02:11.17] Just hold him a little too tight
[02:14.01] Preacher lost the razor
[02:16.53]Bear held on with the [Incomprehensible]
[02:19.70] Cast his eye to the Lord above
[02:22.38] Once more prayed to Him
[02:24.55] He said, "Oh Lord, oh Lord
[02:36.23] Oh Lord, oh, oh, oh Lord
[02:47.05] You remember Daniel in the lion's den
[02:49.88] Samson strong and the hundred men
[02:52.51] Hebrew children in the furnace of fire"
[02:55.31] "David went to kill old lion
[02:58.10] The good book do declare
[03:00.83] Oh, oh, oh Lord
[03:09.51] If You, if You, if You don't help me
[03:19.59] Put a muscle on this big black bear"
