The Bear Song - Uncle Smokey


Recommended Posts

Since finding this song years and years ago, and posting on some forum that I had it, I have been bombarded with requests from all over the place (I think Canada the most) asking if I can send them the song.

Each time I do, I get replies such as "Ive been looking for this song for over 20 years, my Dad used to sing / play us it around the campfire, it brings back so many good memories, you have just made all my Christmas's come true at once, thankyou so much" etc etc

So I thought I would post it here too for anyone else that may remember it, or may have been searching for it for a long while too, it seems a very rare and popular song to some.

I hope this is not piracy, I dont think it is as I think it is just a campfire song, but if it is Mods feel free to remove it

Sounds like something that would have been played on Reading Rainbow...

Yea I just thought it was a fun song, until I started getting the emails

I heard a very old crackly version of it originally on some radio show recording on the net, and after a few beers decided to go find the song - was not an easy task, but eventually did find it and stuck a post out saying I had it after finding 100s of other posts looking for it

Still to this day, like 5 years later, Im still getting emails for it

Hello, I was able to play the bearsong only once. I would really like my nephew to be able to hear it. Would you be so kind as to tell me where I can get a copy? Thank you.
