- Arthur Collins (1864-1933) was an American baritone singer, who was regarded as "King of the Ragtime Singers." "The Preacher and the Bear" is considered to be his signature recording.
My dad was born in 1919 and sang his version of this up until his death in 2004. He would not use the word "coon" because he found it offensive, so he substituted the word "preacher" throughout the song. He would beat it out on our old piano whenever we had company or to entertain his grand kids. Thanks for sharing this recording.
jesus christ how old are you?
@@overpricedhealthcare Hey, mind your language!
Am wondering the same question, tho 👀
Gospel group versions are better then this. Ive heard better then this.
@@Billy219 Just not feeling it. I like the rapping type versions of it. Which is kind of sped up with hype. Arthur worded it better but I prefer the other ones.
A precious song and a great performance. Irresistible.
Finally found this, I have a record player, an Edison, plays cylinders, used to listen to song when we were kids. We loved it
This slaps
Well, a preacher he went out hunting.
‘Twas on one Sunday morn’.
‘Course it was against his ‘ligion,
But he took along his gun.
Shot himself some very fine quail,
And one big measly hare,
And on his way returning home,
He met a great big grizzly bear.
The bear marched out to the middle of the road
And he walked to the coon, you see.
That coon got so excited
That he climbed up a ‘simmon tree.
The bear got down upon the ground
And the coon climbed out on a limb.
Cast his eyes to the lawd in the skies,
These the words he said to him,
“Oh lawdy, did you sure deliver Daniel from the lion’s den.
Also deliver Jonah from the belly of the whale, and then,
The Hebrew children from the fiery furnace, so the good book do declare.
Lawd, if you can’t help me, put a muzzle on the big black bear.”
That coon he stayed up in that tree
Well, I think it was all night.
Sayin’, “Now lawd if you don’t help me
You’re gonna see one awful fight.”
‘Bout that time the limb let go,
And the coon came tumbling down.
Y’oughta seen him get his razor¹ out
Just before he struck the ground.
He struck the ground a-cuttin’ right and left
And he put up a very game fight.
The bear then grabbed that coon,
And he hugged him a little too tight.
The coon ‘en lost his razor¹,
But the bear held on with a-vim.
Cast his eyes to the lawd in the skies,
And he once more said to him,
“Oh lawdy, did you sure deliver Daniel from the lion’s den.
Also deliver Jonah from the belly of the whale, and then,
The Hebrew children from the fiery furnace, so the good book do declare.
Lawd, if you can’t help me, put a muzzle on the big black bear.
Oh lawdy, did you sure deliver Daniel from the lion’s den.
Also deliver Jonah from the belly of the whale, and then,
The Hebrew children from the fiery furnace, so the good book do declare.
Lawd, if you can’t help me, put a muzzle on the big black bear.”
I think he says, "if you can't help me for goodness sakes don't you help that bear" instead of "muzzle that bear",though I could have misheard what he says.
Rough riders theme song
I think the Rough Riders theme song is widely considered to be "There'll Be a Hot Time in the Old Town Tonight." They adopted it as their marching song during the Spanish American War and supposedly may have even been singing it during the charge in the battle of San Juan Hill.
I've never heard the Preacher and the Bear associated with the Rough Riders 1st Volunteer Cavalry Regiment.

Eh bien, un prédicateur, il est allé chasser.
'C'était un dimanche matin'.
Bien sûr, c'était contre sa 'ligion,
Mais il a pris son arme.
Il s'est abattu de très belles cailles,
Et un gros lièvre effroyable,
Et en rentrant chez lui,
Il a rencontré un gros ours grizzli.
L'ours a marché jusqu'au milieu de la route
Et il a marché jusqu'au raton laveur, voyez-vous.
Ce raton laveur était tellement excité
qu'il a grimpé sur un arbre simon.
L'ours est descendu sur le sol
Et le raton laveur est monté sur une branche.
Jette les yeux sur la loi dans les cieux,
Voici les paroles qu'il lui dit,
« Oh mon avocat, avez-vous vraiment délivré Daniel de la fosse aux lions.
Délivre aussi Jonas du ventre de la baleine, et puis,
Les enfants hébreux de la fournaise ardente, ainsi le bon livre le déclare.
Lawd, si tu ne peux pas m'aider, mets une muselière au gros ours noir.
Ce raton laveur est resté debout dans cet arbre
Eh bien, je pense que c'était toute la nuit.
En disant: "Maintenant, si tu ne m'aides pas,
tu vas voir un combat horrible."
À ce moment-là, le membre a lâché prise,
et le raton laveur est tombé. Vous auriez dû le voir sortir
son rasoir ¹ juste avant qu'il ne touche le sol.
Il a frappé le sol en coupant à droite et à gauche
Et il s'est battu comme un gibier.
L'ours a alors attrapé ce raton laveur,
et il l'a serré un peu trop fort.
Le raton laveur a perdu son rasoir ¹ ,
Mais l'ours a tenu bon avec un vim.
Jeta les yeux sur la loi dans les cieux,
Et il lui dit une fois de plus :
« Oh mon avocat, avez-vous vraiment délivré Daniel de la fosse aux lions.
Délivre aussi Jonas du ventre de la baleine, et puis,
Les enfants hébreux de la fournaise ardente, ainsi le bon livre le déclare.
Lawd, si tu ne peux pas m'aider, mets une muselière au gros ours noir.
Oh ma belle, as-tu vraiment délivré Daniel de la fosse aux lions.
Délivre aussi Jonas du ventre de la baleine, et puis,
Les enfants hébreux de la fournaise ardente, ainsi le bon livre le déclare.
Lawd, si tu ne peux pas m'aider, mets une muselière au gros ours noir.
