Original version=
Gotta get up, I've gotta get goin'
I'm gonna see a friend of mine
He's round and he's fuzzy
I love him because he's just...
Pooh Bear, Winnie the Pooh Bear
Lookin' for fun, chasin' some honeybees
Pooh Bear, I know he's out there
Rumbly-tumbly, climbin' a honey tree
Fun never ends for us, we're so adventurous
Least every now and again
And when we're alone and there's nobody home
It's nice to be able to count on a friend like...
Pooh Bear, Winnie the Pooh Bear
Wherever you go, oh won't you take me please?
Pooh Bear, I gotta be there
It's me and it's you
My silly old Winnie the Pooh
