Polar Bear Blues
(Gary Bowman)
.
A song about the tragic plight of the Polar Bear. This one's for you, Jason...
.
I’ve got a short, short tail, I’ve got the sleek, white hair
I’ve got a short, short tail, I’ve got the sleek, white hair
They call me Ursa Maritimus, I’m the great white Polar Bear
I just ramble around, Living on the ice and snow
I just ramble around, Living on the ice and snow
I live way up north, You can feel those cold winds blow
He’s a-swimming all day, Looking for a big ice floe
Fifty miles behind, And fifty more to go
I’m living on the edge, Looking for a steady meal
I’m living on the edge, Looking for a steady meal
Nothing coming my way, Just dreaming of a big old Seal
I’m a-leaving you, Baby, And, I don’t know where I’m gonna go,
I’m a-leaving you, Baby, And, I don’t know where I’m gonna go,
I got the Polar Bear Blues, Man, I’m feelin’ so low
He’s a-swimming all day, Looking for a big ice flow
Fifty miles behind, And fifty more to go
