Sam Patch
Chorus：
Sam Patch, Sam Patch - jumped over the Falls with a bear and a hat
The hat went under and so did Sam, but the bear went swimming away, hey! The bear went swimming away.
So gather 'round children, gather 'round folks - I've got a tale to tell and it ain't no joke
The moral of the tale will be plain to see：don't jump over the Falls of the Genesee
The Mighty Genesee.
Chorus
Old Sam Patch was regular clown, who thought he was the best jumpin' man around
He didn't jump up - he only jumped down. And that's why we're singing this song - oh!
That's why we're singing this song.
Chorus
I don't know where Sam got the bear, but he made his living from jumpin' in the air

With not much of nothin' underneath, but a pool of water to put his feet
His dirty little feet.
Chorus
Now, when Sam Patch leapt over the brink, that fateful Friday the 13th
The crowd went hush - held its breath - the bear went swimmin' away, hey!
Down Ontario way.
Chorus
Sam always claimed that 'some things can, be done as well as others can'
He calculated jumps scientifically - but not in the case of the Genesee
The Mighty Genesee!
