Well, I went out to Los Angeles, California and I saw a semi truck along the side of the road.
F# C#
It said 'Dakota the dancin’ bear on the side of it. Now they charged you 50
F# B
cents to watch this bear dance around a truck. So I turned to Arlow and I said,
F# B
"Arlow, we ought to get down off these motorcycles and walk over there and see
F# B
if that's the same bear that Betty told us about when she was driving the semi truck for us back in
F# C#
Nashville, Tennessee." so we got down off our motorcycles and we walked over there eaten' our pickles.
F# B
Now there was four or five hundred thousand of these hippies
freaks standin' around waitin' on a
F# C#
rock festival. It appeared that David Allan Coe, Kris Kristofferson and The
F#
Grand Funk Railroad was playin' in
B F#
town that day and their airplane had got hijacked somewhere over Chicago,
C#
Illinois. So it turned out that the
F#
people with short hair started throwing' rocks at the people that had long hair.
B F# C#
And the people with long hair started throwin’ the rocks back. We come
F#
to find out in California when they had a rock
B F# C# F#
festival, you were supposed to carry your own rocks. Well I walked over to the
B
bear’s cage and he said,
(Spoken)
“I know you you’re David Allan Coe and Arlow Guthroey that sings country and
western music on juke box, radio, and television. And y’all gave me some acid
when I was in Nashville and started me dancin around this truck.” And I
said, “that’s right son that’s why I’m here because you signed a contract with
me, and you owe me 20% of all the money you’ve been makin' since you been out
here on the road.” He said, “man I ain’t got no money” I said, “what you do
with it?” He pointed to the next cage and there was a female bear over there
shootin' up heroin and before I could say anything I turned around and I saw a
Greyhound bus painted black and white and it said “The David Allan Coe Show -
The Mysterious Rhinestone Cowboy and The Tennessee Hat Band” on the side of
it. And there was a woman drivin' the bus. And sure enough there was old push
up Betty and she didn’t have no bra on. And she said to me…
F# B F#
She said, "Hey Dave, come quick, there's something you got to see
F# B C# F#
That man has got a dancin’ bear tied up to that old tree."
[Chorus]
F# B F# B F#
I said, "Dance, dance, Dakota dance all around the country store."
F# G# C#
Me and sweet Betty ain't never seen, a bear that could dance before
F#
Well, its one step, two steps, three steps four
B F#
G# bottle of soda and he'll dance some more
F# C# B F#
Dance, dance, Dakota dance all around the country store.
