Big Daddy, don't poke the bear. Mess with me, I'll split you in two. Send you home in a sack, can't identify you No guns, just rope and a desire to strip you of hope Don't poke the bear. Don't poke the bear. Fool, motherfucker. Hear me say: I ain't going nowhere. The sign on the gate says don't go there I got 9 hungry hogs who just don't care Got too close to my baby bear, now you're pigshit, man Stink in the air Feed your corpse to hogs, what's left I give to my dogs. Like pistol smoke, you were never here, Plead and pray won't help you today. Pick a tree. They all look fine to me. The sign on the gate says don't go there I got 9 hungry hogs who just don't care Got too close to my baby bear, now you're pigshit, boy, Stink in the air Don't poke the bear Don't poke the bear A look of surprise, mouth full of flies. No goodbyes, just blank eyes. Baby bears sleep sound, knowing poppa bear's around them. Big Daddy guards his family, keeps watch for the enemy. Snapped your neck, left you swinging in a tree. Kicked back, sipping sweet tea. [Bridge] You hear that porch swing creak? That ain't a warning, you're outta luck You should've stayed in bed this morning Mud on my boots, blood on my hands, Step too close, I'm a wanted man, One wrong move and I cut off your hands Say my name soft, say it with fear, Big Daddy's standing right here. The sign on the gate says don't go there I got 9 hungry hogs who just don't care Got too close to my baby bear, now you're pigshit, just a Stink in the air Don't poke the bear Don't poke the bear, The bear, he don't care Don't poke the bear The bear, he don't care. Don't poke the bear
