Little Black Bear

Horses in the meadow
Chickens in the stable
If you'll be my one true love
I'll love you when I'm able
Oh I'll love you when I can
Well I'll build a little cabin
Way back in the pines
Yonder come a little black bear
With honey on his mind
Oh come be mine
If you've honey on your mind
