The Bare Necessities lyrics

Look for the bare necessities

The simple bare necessities

Forget about your worries and your strife

I mean the bare necessities

Old Mother Nature`s recipes

That brings the bare necessities of life



Wherever I wander, wherever I roam

I couldn`t be fonder of my big home

The bees are buzzin` in the tree

To make some honey just for me

When you look under the rocks and plants

And take a glance at the fancy ants

Then maybe try a few



The bare necessities of life will come to you

They`ll come to you!



Look for the bare necessities

The simple bare necessities

Forget about your worries and your strife

I mean the bare necessities

That`s why a bear can rest at ease

With just the bare necessities of life



Now when you pick a pawpaw

Or a prickly pear

And you prick a raw paw

Next time beware

Don`t pick the prickly pear by the paw

When you pick a pear

Try to use the claw

But you don`t need to use the claw

When you pick a pear of the big pawpaw

Have I given you a clue ?



The bare necessities of life will come to you

They`ll come to you!



So just try and relax, yeah cool it

Fall apart in my backyard

`Cause let me tell you something little britches

If you act like that bee acts, uh uh

You`re working too hard



And don`t spend your time lookin` around

For something you want that can`t be found

When you find out you can live without it

And go along not thinkin` about it

I`ll tell you something true



The bare necessities of life will come to you



Look for the bare necessities

The simple bare necessities

Forget about your worries and your strife

I mean the bare necessities

That`s why a bear can rest at ease

With just the bare necessities of life



The bare necessities of life will come to you
