Hunger
Shawn James
The big old bear walked from his cave hungrier than he had ever known
Haggard and tough, mangled and gruff
Ain’t a beast alive would go toe to toe
On the wind he caught the scent of prey as drool dripped from his mouth
Hunger in his mind, gravel in his gut
He turned and he headed south
Singin
Oh no, oh no, oh no I ain’t gon’ die
Oh no, oh no, oh no I ain’t gon’ die
Smoke rose up ahead as he barreled through those woods
There’s no turning back now even if he could
King of the forest, who could claim his throne
When his mighty thunderous roar sends chills to the bone
Singin
Oh no, oh no, oh no I ain’t gon’ die
Oh no, oh no, oh no I ain’t gon’ die
The hunter froze when he heard the roar come through the trees
He setup a trap underneath a pile of leaves
He grabbed his gun, backed away from the fire
That big damn bear was the heart of his desire
As the bear came up, he knew something wasn’t right
He smelled trouble all around that campfire light
A shot rang out, a bullet flew through the night sky
It grazed the bear right above his left eye
Madder than hell, he stood up 8 feet talk looking round
One swipe of his massive paw, he struck that hunter down
Singin
Oh no, oh no, oh no I ain’t gon’ die
Oh no, oh no, oh no I ain’t gon’ die
