CHORUS
The legend of Black Bear Lake
The legend of Black Bear Lake
The legend of Black Bear Lake
The legend of Black Bear Lake
One night long ago heavy rains came down
And the Indians looked for higher ground
They paddled their canoes and they stayed awake
Till they came upon the Black Bear Lake
Yes they came upon the Black Bear Lake
CHORUS
In their teepees at night the Indians slept
And a great black bear round the mountain crept
He pushed their canoes and they drifted away
So his Indians friend would stay
Yes his Indian friends did stay
CHORUS
We?re part of the Earth from the bear to the bird
So respect each other and say a kind word
Reach out your hand and show that you care
In the spirit of the Great Black Bear
In the spirit of the Great Black Bear
CHORUS
