Country Bear Jingle Bell Jamboree
Melvin:Rudolph the red nose reindeer had a very-
Max:Hey Melvin,that’s supposed to be my song.
Melvin:Huh?
Max:Look, Melvin.  I'm the deer.  I got the red nose, so I get to sing-
Buff:Ain't we gone through all this before?
Melvin:Well,I don't see why he always gets to sing the-
Henry:Hold the phone there, boys.  Where's your Christmas spirit?  Now sorry, folks. (Clears throat.) Gomer, let's show 'em how it's done.
Max:Ain't he a sight for sore eyes.
Buff:Well, he sounds better than he looks.  That's for sure.
Henry:Howdy!Hello!Welcome to this fun Christmas moment.Everybody knows the familiar melodies, everybody clap along to the Country Bear Jamboree! Oh Jingle Bells Jingle Bells Jingle all the way oh what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh!
Henry:Ladies and gentlemen,the Five Bear Rugs.
Henry:When the snow begins a fallin',and your blood begins to freeze.It's time to stomp and holler,and slap your hairy knees.
Zeke:So hand me down my banjo, I think I'm gonna sing!
Zeke and Henry:The time for sittin' idle's in the summer or the spring.
Five Bear Rugs:We're makin' tracks in the snow and everything is rosy.
Henry:No more hibernating, boys!
Five Bear Rugs:We're up on our feet!Just makin' tracks in the snow, keepin' warm and cozy.Shiverin' and shakin' to that good ole country beat.
Zeke:Sing it out Henry!
Henry:I like the cozy fire on a cold, dark winter night.When the wind is often rattlin',and the stars are shining bright.
Tennessee:My feet upon my huntin' dog, my arm around my wife.
All:They may be old and toothless.
Tennessee:But I've had 'em all my life.
Five Bear Rugs:We're makin' tracks in the snow,and everything is rosy.No more hibernating, boys.We're up on our feet!Just makin' tracks in the snow,keepin' warm and cozy.Shiverin' and shakin',to that good ole country beat.Shiverin' and shakin',to that good ole country beat.
(Zeb sneezes.)
Five Bear Rugs:Yeah, Good job, Henry!
Wendell:On the first day of Christmas, I said to my mate,'I'm a goin' a huntin', and I might be home late.'The next day of Christmas, seems I lost my way,and I ain't seen my cabin since dawn yesterday.Oh, what a Christmas.I'm lonely and lost, and shakin' and sneezin'(Teeth chatter)And c-c-covered with frost.I fell in the river, and lost all my food.Don't sing me no carols, 'cause I ain't in the mood.Next year at Christmas, I think I'll use my head .And spend the 12 days of Christmas in my bed.
Chorus:Next year stay home.
Henry:You be careful with that squirrel gun now, Wendell.
Wendell:Aw, heck.  It ain't even loaded.(Gun fires and the lights go out on the stage.) Sorry.
Henry:Rufus?
Rufus:Huh?
Henry:I need a little light down here.
(Rufus breathes heavily and doors are heard opening, as well as paws going down stairs.  An electric jolt is heard as the lights go back on.)
Henry:Thanks Rufus.And up next,i need someone to sing a bittersweet song indispensable to the Christmas holiday...Trixie,I’m asking you.
Trixie:Have yourself a merry little Christmas Ask me if I care From now on you won’t be my main grizzly bear! It told me should you hibernate You might miss our date,for sure But I saw you at our favorite spot with our honey pot and her!
Buff:Sing it,gal.
Trixie:So through the years you two can stay together Or you can go out on the prowl! But show up here and the only thing I’ll do is grrrrrrrowl!But have yourself a merry little Christmas now.
Henry:That was great,Trixie.
Zeke:Deck the halls with boughs of holly.
Bear Rugs:Fa-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la.

Zeb:'Tis the season to be jolly.

Zeb: (Fighting back a sneeze).Ah-
Bear Rugs:La.

Webster:Someone put on a stove!I’ll freeze in the cold.
Henry:True,a stove can keep you warm but I have a better way, listen to the song of these cute girls!Bunny,Bubbles,and Beulah.
Bubbles:Just hear them sleigh bells jinglin', ring ting tingin; too.

Beulah:Outside the snow is falling and friends are calling yoohoo.  Yoohoo, hoo hoo.  (Another bear tries to draw attention to the riders that the sleigh is going dangerously close to a cliff.)Come on it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you.  (The sleigh goes over the cliff.)
Sunbonnets:Giddy up, giddy up, giddy up let's go.  Let's look at the show.(The horse is now in the sleigh with the bears as it goes down the cliff.)
Bunny:We're riding in a wonderland of snow.  (Animals are fleeing from the sleigh.)

Ernest:The wind is a-howlin', and thrashin' the trees.
Tennessee:My baby is growlin', and scratchin' her fleas.
Ernest:Can't open the door, 'cause there's ten feet of snow.
Five Bear Rugs:And the food is all gone and it's forty below.
(A sound like a growling stomach is heard.)
Ernest:Well, I'm hungry.Yes, I'm hungry.I'm hungry as a bear.If you come around my cabin-
Five Bear Rugs:You'd better beware.
Ernest:'Cause I'm hungry.Yes, I'm hungry.I'm hungry as a bear.Got a mouth full of teeth.And a belly full of air.This Christmas, dear old Santa won't show up, I bet.
