Lyrics[]
Pa Grape: We’re going on a bear hunt, (Junior and Kids: We're going on a bear hunt)
Gonna catch a big one, (Gonna catch a big one)
Got my very best friend (Got my very best friend)
Right by my side (Right by my side)
I see a wheat field (I see a wheat field)
Can’t go over it, (Can’t go over it)
Can’t go under it, (Can’t go under it)
We'll have to go through it! (We'll have to go through it)
Mr. Lunt: Oh! The wheat, it-it's...I think I have hay fever.
Pa Grape: I see a bridge (Junior and Kids: I see a bridge)
Mr. Lunt: Achoo!
Pa Grape: Can’t go under it, (Junior and Kids: Can’t go under it)
Can’t go around it, (Can’t go around it)
We'll have to go over it! (We'll have to go over it)
Jimmy: Uh, do you think this bridge is strong enough to hold all of us? Oh dear.
Pa Grape: I see a lake! (Junior and Kids: I see a lake)
Can’t go over it, (Can’t go over it)
Can’t go around it, (Can’t go around it)
We'll have to swim across it (We'll have to swim across it)
Come on, somebody. Help him out.
Archibald: Thank you!
Pa Grape: I see a tree (Junior and Kids: I see a tree)
Mr. Lunt: Oooh! A big one!
Pa Grape: Can’t go over it, (Can’t go over it)
Can’t go under it, (Can’t go under it)
Let's climb up it! (Let's climb up it)
Jimmy: Oy! Whew. This is hard work.
Pa Grape: Do you see a bear? (Kids: Do you see a bear?)
I don't see any bear. (I don't see any bears)
Let's climb down. (Let's climb down)
Look out!
Jimmy: Whew.
Pa Grape: I see a swamp (I see a swamp)
Can’t go over it, (Junior and Kids: Can’t go over it)
Can’t go under it, (Can’t go under it)
Guess we'll have to go through it, (Guess we'll have to go through it)
Mr. Lunt: This slush will ruin my slacks.
Junior: This is disgusting!
Mr. Lunt: Slush. This is slush.
Junior: Ew!
Mr. Lunt: Why are waltzing?
Kids: Ewwww!
Jimmy: You're not gonna take us in there, are you?
Pa Grape: I see a cave. (Junior and Kids: I see a cave)
Jimmy: Ohhhh.
Pa Grape: Can’t go over it, (Can’t go over it)
Jimmy: I don't like this.
Pa Grape: Can’t go under it, (Can’t go under it)
Jimmy: Uh, let me go home.
Pa Grape: We'll have to go in (We'll have to go in)
Jimmy: I don't wanna go in the cave!
Pa Grape: I see two eyes (Kids: I see two eyes)
Pa Grape: I see two ears (Junior and Kids: I see two ears)
I see a nose (I see a nose)
I see a big mouth (Kids: And a big mouth)
Everyone: *screams*
Pa Grape: Go back though the swamp (Junior and Kids: Back though the swamp)
Archibald: Wait for me, fellows!
Pa Grape: Climb back up the tree (Back up the tree)
Mr. Lunt: Why do we have to go back up the tree? I'm running!
Pa Grape: Wait! Climb back down the tree (Climb back down the tree)
Mr. Lunt: You are driving me crazy!
Pa Grape: Swim back across the lake (Back across the lake)
Jimmy: Oh. Oh. *mutters* I get the crab. Bad crab!
Pa Grape: Go back over the bridge (Back over the bridge)
Jimmy: *mutters* Oh my leg!
Pa Grape: Run back to the wheat field (Back to the wheat field)
Mr. Lunt: I'm running! Achoo! Achoo!
Pa Grape: Run back to the campfire (Back to the campfire)
Junior and Kids: *sigh in relief*
Pa Grape: We're safe! Ooh. Oh, man.
Mr. Lunt: That's the last time I follow you anywhere.

Trivia[]
- This song was featured in VeggieTales Rockin' Tour Live!. Here, Archibald's line "Wait for me, fellows!" isn't played until near the end of the song, specifically after the "back to the campfire" lyric.
- Mr. Lunt also says his final line in the song, "That's the last time I follow you anywhere", earlier in the aforementioned live show. This is followed by extra dialogue from the other veggies.
