Grizzly Bear Lyrics - Shel Silverstein

Yeah they call me Grizzly Bear got long black grizzly hair 

Walk down the street and everybody stop and stare 

Ohohoh well I'm wild and wooly and free 

And so you'd better not mess with me 

Lemme tell you that I howl yowl growl like a grizzly bear 

They say there go Grizzly Bear got no clothes to wear 

They say I'm all hung up bein' nowhere 

Yeah but the girls they love my clows and my great big chompin' jaws 

Lemme tell you that I howl yowl and growl like a grizzly bear 

Well now I can't be chained and I can't be tamed and they can't kill my desire 

So baby gimme a hug I'll be your bearskin rug 

And I'll lie in front of your fire on winter 

Baby if you dare why don't you come on down to my lair 

And if you got some money to share I'll be waitin' for you there 

Hey you know I'm gonna on strong and we can hug'n mate the whole week long 

Lemme tell you that I howl yowl a growl like a grizzly bear 

[ piano ] 

(Yeah watch out baby here I come again) 

They call me Grizzly Bear they say I'm kooky and square 

They can say anything they want about me I don't care I don't care 

Because I'm takin' it day by day and I'm livin' my own sweet way 

Lemme tell you that I howl yowl a growl like a grizzly bear 

Like grizzly bear yeah I really rip and tear I really get my share
