Ole Slew Foot
Recorded by Johnny Horton
Written by Howard Hausey

G
High on the mountain tell me what you see
                        C               G
Bear tracks bear tracks looking back at me

Better get your rifle boys before it's too late
                                     C               G
'Cause a bear's got a little pig and headed thru the gate

    D7                            G
He's big around the middle and he's broad across the rump
       D7                         G
Running ninety miles an hour taking thirty feet a jump

Ain't never been caught he ain't never been tree'd
                         C       G
Some folks say he looks a lot like me


I saved up my mon' and I bought me some bees
                                 C          G
And they started making honey way up in the trees

Cut down the tree but my honey's all gone
                         C          G
Ole Slew-Foot's done made himself at home

Repeat #2

Winter's coming on and it's twenty below
                              C            G
And the river's froze over so where can he go

We'll chase him up the gulley

Then we'll run him in the well
                                     C             G
We'll shoot him in the bottom just to listen to him yell

Repeat #2
