Don't you give up my young, young friends

Here's a story I think will please

How Sir Rastus Bear was in fact redeemed

Redeemed from the cell to which he'd been thrown

By men whose love was more

They pranced his brain on through the long, long night

Sir Rastus Bear who'd ever believe

You'd be by a song

Redeemed
D G D

Up on the north forty

I'm sure it was Christmas day

And songs, oh those songs
D G Em
Oh those deep but true
Bm A G
Hill country songs

You'd be by a song

won't be long-long-long-long-long-long-long-long-
