Lyrics Burl Ives – The Bear On The Ball
Text:
The parade is coming closer
Hip hip hooray, hip hip hooray
I would listen no sir
I can’t wait till they come around the bend
When the circus comes to town
I love to watch the clown
But the bear on the ball with the parasol
I love him most of all
The circus is for me
But I can’t wait to see
The bear on the ball with the parasol
I love him most of all
I love the other animals
The elephant and the rest
The horses and the monkeys too
But there’s one that I love best
My favorite little pet
You love him too, I bet
The bear on the ball with the parasol
I love him most of all
When the circus comes to town
I love to watch the clown
But the bear on the ball with the parasol
I love him most of all
The circus is for me
But I can’t wait to see
The bear on the ball with the parasol
I love him most of all
I love the other animals
The horses and the monkeys too
But there’s one that I love best
My favorite little pet
You love him too, I bet
The bear on the ball with the parasol
I love him most of all
