Life's a Bear

[Verse] In the heart of the wild woods, where the pines grow so tall, There’s a big ol' bear lumberin' slow, takin' his time through it all. He don’t rush for honey and he don’t chase dreams, Just movin' step by step through the forest of his schemes. [Verse 2] I see myself like him, with the weight of the world, Tryin’ to catch fish in a stream, where the water’s swirled. Sometimes it’s a struggle, sometimes it’s a breeze, Just like that bear, we all bend at the knees. [Chorus] Life’s a bear, no denying that truth, Bearin’ heavy burdens like we did in our youth. Roamin' through the forest, findin' our own way, Life’s a bear, each and every day. [Verse 3] In the autumn he's shufflin', gettin' ready to snooze, Puttin' on the pounds, takin' off his shoes. Winter’s a-comin', and he's got to prepare, Life’s a circle, and I see it in the bear. [Bridge] Then springtime’s bloomin', brings new life to the scene, The bear wakes up stretchin', leaves winter behind clean. We shake off our troubles when the sun starts to shine, Life’s a bear, but we get another try. [Chorus] Life’s a bear, no denying that truth, Bearin’ heavy burdens like we did in our youth. Roamin' through the forest, findin' our own way, Life’s a bear, each and every day.
