When my brother came home tonight, he was singing one of my favorite country songs, Forever and Ever, Amen. I found this rather curious, as he generally despises country music, though I think he's always had a soft spot for that particular tune. I certainly do, at any rate, and his second time through the chorus I decided I needed to hi-jack it for my favorite Disnified bear...
I'm Gonna Love Pooh Forever
You may think that Pooh Bear is foolish,
A bear of a low pedigree.
You may ask me why when discovering I
Paint him on my wall and watch him on my TV.
You may ask why I am willing
To love one who seems so unwise.
Well, since I was five, this love has survived;
It certainly isn't something I would disguise.
Believe me, I'm gonna love Pooh forever,
Forever and ever amen.
As long as that bear finds his hunny pot is empty
And Christopher Robin fills it up for him again,
I would wander the forests of England
For a glimpse of my stuffed-with-fluff friend.
I'll love Pooh forever, forever and ever,
Forever and ever amen.
They say Pooh has a round sort of body,
Though he does exercises each day.
I tell ya, I don't care, he's such a lovable bear
If he were a blimp, well, I'd love him anyway.
They say Pooh's addled wits are contagious.
He will make ya forget things you knew.
Well, it's easy to see that it's happenin' to me.
I've already forgotten every teddy but Pooh.
Believe me, I'm gonna love Pooh forever,
Forever and ever amen.
As long as that bear finds his hunny pot is empty
And Christopher Robin fills it up for him again,
I would wander the forests of England,
Searching for him until the day's end.
I'll love Pooh forever, forever and ever,
Forever and ever amen.
