Hey, look at me, I’m a dancing bear in a bow to a gypsy king He taught me everything I know and he plays a mean tambourine And he got a gold ring in his ear, I got a brass one in my nose For any mother’s son, for any momma’s cub way it goes
Now, I like my life, that’s all I know, there’s nothing that I lack So why do I do dream of the bark of a tree To scratch my back and figure out Why I groove on a rainbow trout?
Dreams, dreams, dreams, recurring dreams Hmmm, why do I have these dreams? Right foot in and right foot out Hmmm that’s what it’s all about - dreams
Dreams… I watch the world go buy through the bars of my mobile home Why ain’t I satisfied, what do you mean by “Yellowstone”? Now, he’s got a foulard made of silk, I got a collar, I got a chain But he drives our car and he pays my bills And I only dance when it doesn’t rain
Like any bear I’ve ever seen in ways that I was raised But why do I dream of a ...... stream So cold and waiting? Tell me why I get so sleepy in the wintertime?
Dreams, dreams, dreams, recurring dreams Ohmm, why do I have these dreams? Put your left foot in and your left foot out Hmm, baby, that’s what it’s all about - dreams
Dreams…
Now, he’s got a lunch box, I got a pail I climb a ladder, he plays the drum He got a moustache, I got a tail We’re just doing like we always done
Two steps is all I know, two steps is okay by me But why all these dreams of rolling ‘round On daisy greens? I got no clue Just this feeling of déjà vu
Dreams, dreams, dreams, recurring dreams Hmmmm, why do I have these dreams? Right foot in and right foot out Hmmm, that’s what it’s all about - dreams
I’m a Yellowstone cowbear That’s why... Yeah! Rrrrrrrrrrgh!
