Big, Brown Bear (Children’s Song)

1.

One wet and windy Autumn day

As, through the woods, I made my way,

I heard a loud ferocious snore

And then, what do you think I saw?

 

Chorus:

 

It was a big, brown bear;

a big, brown bear

lying and snoring in bed.

 

It was a big, brown bear;

a big, brown bear

resting his big, brown head.

 

2.

 

So while that bear was fast asleep;

I, past his bed, began to creep

But just as I was half way there

My footsteps woke that sleeping bear.

 

 

Chorus:

It was a big, brown bear;

a big, brown bear

lying and snoring in bed.

 

It was a big, brown bear;

a big, brown bear

resting his big, brown head.

 

3.

 

Yes, suddenly that bear woke up

and, in a deep bear voice, spoke up;

he said, “Little boy, have no fear;

I am just a big teddy bear”.

 

Chorus:

It was a big, brown bear;

a big, brown bear

lying and snoring in bed.

 

It was a big, brown bear;

a big, brown bear

resting his big, brown head.

 

4.

So into that bears bed I got

snug as a baby in a cot

and cuddling that bear, I fell

just like him, fast asleep as well

 

Chorus:

It was a big, brown bear;

a big, brown bear

lying and snoring in bed.

 

It was a big, brown bear;

a big, brown bear

resting his big, brown head.
