"Fred Bear" lyrics
There I was back in the wild again
And I felt right at home, where I belong
I had that feeling, coming over me again
Just like it happened so many times before, eh
The Spirit of the Woods is like an old good friend
Makes me feel warm and good inside
And I knew his name and it was good to see him again
Cause in the wind he's still alive
Oh Fred Bear
Walk with me down the trails again
Take me back, back where I belong
Oh Fred Bear
I'm glad to have you at my side my friend
And I'll join you in the big hunt before too long
Before too long
It was kinda dark, another misty dusk
And it came from a tangle down below
And I tried to remember everything you taught me so well
I had to decide which way to go
Was I alone or in a hunter's dream
Cause the moment of truth was here and now
I felt his touch, I felt his guiding hand
The buck was mine forevermore
Because of Fred Bear
I walk down these trails again
Take me back where I belong
Fred Bear
I'm glad to have you at my side my friend
And I'll join you in the big hunt before too long
We're not alone when we're in the great outdoors
We got his spirit, we got his soul
He will guide our steps, he'll guide our arrows home
The restless spirit forever roams
Fred Bear
Walk with me down the trails again
Take me back, back where I belong
Oh Fred Bear
I'm glad to have you at my side my friend
And I'll join you on the big hunt before too long
Oh Fred Bear
Walk with me down the trails again
Take me back, back where I belong
Oh Fred Bear
I'm glad to have you at my side my friend
And I'll join you in the big hunt before too long
In the wind he's still alive
In the wind he's still alive
In the wind he's still alive
In the wind he's still alive
In the wind
I hear
I hear Fred Bear
I hear ya, Fred
Talk to me
Yeah
It's all right, yeah
Let's go hunting, baby
Say, Fred, you go up that ridge
And I'll go down in the swamp
We'll get that buck
"If some of our teenage thrill seekers really want to go out and get a thrill, let them go up into the Northwest and tangle with the grizzly bear, polar bear, and brown bear, and get that effect that will cleanse the soul."
And I felt right at home, where I belong
I had that feeling, coming over me again
Just like it happened so many times before, eh
The Spirit of the Woods is like an old good friend
Makes me feel warm and good inside
And I knew his name and it was good to see him again
Cause in the wind he's still alive
Oh Fred Bear
Walk with me down the trails again
Take me back, back where I belong
Oh Fred Bear
I'm glad to have you at my side my friend
And I'll join you in the big hunt before too long
Before too long
It was kinda dark, another misty dusk
And it came from a tangle down below
And I tried to remember everything you taught me so well
I had to decide which way to go
Was I alone or in a hunter's dream
Cause the moment of truth was here and now
I felt his touch, I felt his guiding hand
The buck was mine forevermore
Because of Fred Bear
I walk down these trails again
Take me back where I belong
Fred Bear
I'm glad to have you at my side my friend
And I'll join you in the big hunt before too long
We're not alone when we're in the great outdoors
We got his spirit, we got his soul
He will guide our steps, he'll guide our arrows home
The restless spirit forever roams
Fred Bear
Walk with me down the trails again
Take me back, back where I belong
Oh Fred Bear
I'm glad to have you at my side my friend
And I'll join you on the big hunt before too long
Oh Fred Bear
Walk with me down the trails again
Take me back, back where I belong
Oh Fred Bear
I'm glad to have you at my side my friend
And I'll join you in the big hunt before too long
In the wind he's still alive
In the wind he's still alive
In the wind he's still alive
In the wind he's still alive
In the wind
I hear
I hear Fred Bear
I hear ya, Fred
Talk to me
