The Bare Necessities - Various Artists

Look for the bare necessities

The simple bare necessities

Forget about your worries and your strife

I mean the bare necesseties

Old Mother Nature's recipes

That bring 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 fancey ants

And 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 prickly pear

And you pick 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!

Oh, man, this is realy living

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 con live without it

And go alone

Now thinking about

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 necesseties

That's why a bear can rest at ease

With just the bare necessities of life

Yeah, with just the bare necessities of life
