Look for the bare necessities
The simple bare necessities
Forget about your worries and your strife
I mean the bare necessities
Old mother nature′s recipes
That bring the bare necessities of life
I couldn't be fonder of my big home
The bees are buzzin′ in the tree
To make some honey just for me
When you look under the rocks and plants
And take a glance at the fancy ants
Look for the bare necessities
The simple bare necessities
Forget about your worries and your strife
I mean the bare necessities
That's why a bear can rest at ease
With just the bare necessities of life
Oh man, this is really lovely
So just try and relax, cool it, fall apart in my backyard
′Cause let me tell you something little bear
If you act like that bee, uh uh, You're working too hard
And don′t spent your time, looking around
For something you want, but can't be found
When you find out you′ve been livin' without it and go along,
I'll tell you something true
The bare necessities of life will come to you
Look for the, bare necessities
The simple bare necessities
Forget about your worries and your strife
I mean the, bare necessities
That′s why a bear can rest at ease
With just the bare necessities of life
Yeah, with just the bare necessities of life
