Henry- The leader of the country bears and all their mayhem. Henry is a welcoming and friendly brown
bear that wears a grey top hat and a big bow tie.

Terrence- A light grey black bear that wears a snorkeling mask and swim trunks while playing a
guitar, where he is accompanied by his octopus girlfriend Delores.
Trixie- A giant brown bear that is dressed like a depressed circus clown. She holds a glass of wine
and a blue handkerchief, there is also a picnic basket next to the tree stump she sits on.
Big Al- An extremely fat black bear that wears a tan hat and a red vest. He plays a broken guitar
and sings depressing songs.
The Sun Bonnet Trio- Three small brown bears Bunny, Bubbles, and Beulah that sing to piano music
provided by the piano-playing Gomer, Bunny is in a one piece bathing suit with sun glasses, Bubbles
is in a sailor dress, and Beulah is in a blue dress with a blue bonnet.
Gomer- A mute bear that plays a honky tonk piano with a honey comb on it. He wears a collar with a
blue tie.
The Five Bear Rugs- Five large and small brown and black bears playing like and old fashioned jug
band. Which are the next five bears listed below.
Zeke- The leader of the five bear rugs, Zeke plays a banjo and taps on a dishpan. He is a black bear
with glasses and a grey top hat.

Fred- The biggest of the five bears that plays a tiny mouthharp with his trademark falling blue
overalls.
Tennessee- A black bear that is blue and plays the thang.
Baby Oscar- The smallest bear in the entire show, that sits on the same platform as the Five Bear
Rugs. He is dressed as a cub scout and holds a teddy bear, his father is Zeb.
Rufus- The dumb and tired brown bear that is heard working the lights in the back of the theater.
The only time he is seen is in the finale when the lights unplug and he is sent flying across the
room in a mangled amount of cords.
Other Animals
Buff- A deep voiced buffalo head mounted on the wall.
Max- The mounted head of a stag that is to the left hand side of Buff.
Melvin- A dopey moose head to the right hand side of Buff, he is the only head to wear anything as
he wears a cowboy hat, a straw hat, and a fishing hat.
Fluffy- A savage coyote that owns the theater and threatens to evict the bears if they don't put on
a good show. He wears a vampire cape and a top hat to show that he is the evil villain. At the end
of the show when he tells the bears what a good show they did he wears a blue sailor suit with a

wall.

Zeke: Hey Rufus, wake up!
Rufus: Huh?
Zeke: It's showtime.
Rufus: Oh. (He's heard running around backstage and breathing heavily as he rushes to turn on the
stage lights.)
Zeke: Alright! One! Two! Three!
(curtain opens.)
Zeke:
If you've just been wishin'
'bout goin' fishin',
and you're still on the shore.
Tennessee:
Grab your camping gear,
and meet us right here,
we got all kinds of fun in store.
Zeb:
It's time for a vacation,
for some rest and relaxation.
Forget your cares, and join us bears,
in the great outdoors.
Five Bear Rugs:
Ain't nothing like the great outdoors to ease your soul.
Ain't nothing like the great outdoors to keep you from growing old.
If your mind's been hazy and you're feeling lazy, and down on all fours,
then join us bears and suck up some air in the great outdoors.
Yeeha!
Henry: Welcome to the Country Bear Revue, it's our first performace in years and I'm a rarin to go.
How about you boys?
Max: Just lead the way, Henry!
Buff: Alright, (Melvin is snoring and asleep) Melvin!
Max: Wake up!
Melvin: Huh?
Buff: The way you're always hibernatin' you must be part bear.
Melvin: Aw, heck. I'm only part moose as it is.
Henry:
Here we go!
(Sings)
Us bears we do love nature,
and tramping through the woods.
Us bears we do love fishing every hour if we could.
Us bears we do love singing, in country harmony.
And if y'all won't join us, we'll chase you up a tree!
(Speaks)
Now that's real country, boys!
Henry: Howdy folks, I am Henry the ringmaster of the Country Bear Revue here at Disney's California
Adventure, and let me tell you it is great to be back and performing again! Today we have put a
tribute to California's music and culture together for you all so here is a special treat out of
Tampa. A little bit of ever loving cuddlesome fluff, our own Trixie!
(Stage 5 opens and we see a rather large woman bear. Kind of a cross between
a bear and the hippos from Fantasia. She is holding a handkerchief and a
nonspillable chaser. She sits on a tree stump with a picnic basket next to her)
Trixie:
Tears will be the chaser for your wine.
After you leave this love of mine.
Bright lights and taverns,
That's where you'll spend your time,
and tears will be the chaser for your wine.
Henry: Beautiful, Beautiful. That was a mighty big song Trixie!
Trixie: Oh thank you Henry! (Goes backstage)
(After the song ends, the heads on the wall rejoin the show with a bit of
conversation)
Buff: That sure ain't all that's big.
Max: Well, you're no light weight yourself Buff!
Henry: Boys, boys, watch your manners...
Melvin: Yeah, if you can't say something nice...err...
Henry: Boys, boys, okay now boys if you just stop carrying on like, we just might dedicate this
next song to you all. And we so dedicate, hit it Big Al (Big Al appears about to play)
Big Al: So this is love, hmmmmhmmmhmmhmmmm. (A blast of fog appears up in the private viewing box
across from the three heads. Fluffy the coyote appears wearing a vampire-cape and a top hat while
growling angrily. Big Al stops playing as Henry looks at the coyote)
Henry: Oh hello there Mr. Fluffy sir, you came down to see the show?
Fluffy: I had no choice to come see it, after all I own this theater, I control all of your careers.
Henry: Indeed you do, say Big Al why don't you go back to sleep. (Big Al groans as the curtains close
on him)
Fluffy: Henry, you don't know how many complaints I have received about your little musical revue.
Henry: Complaints, why everyone loves us, or at least we think that.
Fluffy: Well that's not what visitors here think, I swear put on a good show or else you guys are
out of show business. (He remains there for the rest of the show watching it like a hawk)
Henry: Well if you say so sir. Hey Wendell (Wendell starts rising from the main stage)
Wendell: Ya?
Henry: Your'e up! (Goes backstage)
Wendell: Okay, uh (He is in the Disney tourist clothing while holding a camera) hey Rufus!
Rufus: Huh?
Wendell: Fire up that there picture machine!
Rufus: Oh.(Rufus is heard struggling backstage, followed by a crash. A picture of Wendell and his
family come up on the screen, with their heads cut out of the picture.)
Max: Oh, no!
Buff: Not Wendell's vacation slides again.
Melvin: I'm going back to sleep.
(Slide changes and shows Wendell in front of his car.)
Wendell:
On the road again.
I can't wait to get on the road again.
(Another shot of the car piled with stuff for vacation.)
The life I love is making music with my friends.
(The car in the picture gets a flat tire right as it's leaving.)
I can't wait to get on the road again.
(The family watches the car getting towed away.)
On the road again.
(Wendell is shown back in the car with one of his kids in the front seat.)
Goin' places that I've never been.
(The family is shown at Old Faithful geyser.)
And seein' things that I might never see again.
(The car radiator is now steaming like the geyser.)
I can't wait to get on the road again.
(Another picture of the car getting towed away.)
On the road again.
(Wendell is again shown in the car with a crankier kid in the front seat.)
Like a band of gypsies, we go down the highway.
(Rufus is heard struggling as a picture of a picnic is projected upside down, followed by a slide
that says "One Moment Please".)
We're the best of friends.
(The picnic photo is projected the correct way.)
Insisting that the world be turnin' our way.
(Another shot from the picnic is shown, with Ranger J. Audubon Woodlore pointing to a sign saying
"Do Not Feed the Bears".)
And our way,
is on the road again
(Wendell's wife and son are in front of the Statue of Liberty, who looks like a bear.)
I can't wait to get on the road again.
(Wendell is shown in front of a Mt. Rushmore consisting of bears.)
The life I love is making music with my friends.
(The family is shown by the Grand Canyon.)
I can't wait to get on the road again.
(The picture reveals they were looking at a billboard for the Grand Canyon as their car gets towed
away again.)
(Speaks)
Say cheese!
(A picture of the audience is shown, along with Mac, Buff and Melvin on the wall, and Fluffy in his
private box)
Female Voice: There's no flash photography allowed during the performance. And that goes for
everybody, Wendell!
Wendell: Sorry.
Fluffy: What the heck just happened now?
(He goes back down as the pictures disappear, Liver Lips dressed like Elvis and playing a guitar
appears)
Liver Lips: I got a woman, she's got me.
Whatever we do, we both agree
She ain't purty, but I ain't too.
The things we like are the things we do.
My woman ain't purty, but she don't swear none.
She's kinda heavy, don't weigh a ton.
She's my woman, through and through
I love her only cause my heart is true. (He goes backstage)
Fluffy: Monkey faced bears impersonating rock stars, no wonder Iv'e got complaints.
(The Sun Bonnet Trio and Gomer come out of the main stage)
Sun Bonnets: In a little honky-tonky village in Texas
There's a guy who plays the best piano by far
He can play piano any way that you like it
But the way he likes to play is eight to the bar
When he plays, it's a ball
He's the daddy of them all
The people gather around when he gets on the stand
Then when he plays, he gets a hand
The rhythm he beats puts the cats in a trance
Nobody there bothers to dance
But when he plays with the bass and guitar
They holler out, "Beat me Daddy, eight to the bar"
A-plink, a-plank, a-plink plank, plink plank
A-plunkin' on the keys
A-riff, a-raff, a-riff raff, riff raff
A-riffin' out with ease
And when he plays with the bass and guitar
They holler out, "Beat me Daddy, eight to the bar"
(The four disappear and Terrence dressed as a diver with a beach in the background appears playing
guitar with his girlfriend octopus Delores who has a tentacle around him)
Fluffy: What the, oh that defies so many laws of nature.
Terrence: Don't listen to him Delores what we have is special.
Two different worlds.
We live in two different worlds.
Oh, we've been told that a love like ours
Could never be.
(Whispers to Delores as she swoons.)
Hey! Quit squeezin'!
(Sings.)
When will they learn-
(Yells.)
Ow!
(Sings.)
That a heart doesn't draw lines.
Nothing matters if I am yours,
and you are mine.
(To Delores as she swoons.)
Aw, come on! Let go!
(Sings.)
Two different worlds.
We live in two different worlds.
But we will show them,
as we swim together in the sun.
(Delores swoons.)
That our two different worlds are one.
(Speaks.)
Ow! This just ain't workin' out, Delores! (They disappear. Big Al appears again with haunted woods
behind him)
Buff: Hey, don't this show smell bad enough as it is?
Fluffy: Who hired this guy?
Big Al: This is a song, my papa bear Bigger Al used to sing when he went to work.
Iv'e been workin' on the railroad.
All the live long day. (Train is heard coming, Big Al's eyes widen and he looks towards it's
direction)
Can't you hear the whistle blowin
Dina blow your horn! (Train gets louder and blows it's horn as Big Al's light goes out and a crash
is heard)
(The Bear Rugs appear again and it is now nightime)
Zeb: Hey Zeke, little Oscar here wants a story.
Zeke: A real, scary story?
Oscar: Uh huh.
Zeke: Alright then.
(Clears throat and continues.)
An old cowpoke went riding out one dark and windy day.
Tennessee: Upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way.
Zeb: When all at once a mighty herd of red eyed cows he saw.
Five Bear Rugs:
A-plowing through the ragged sky and up the cloudy draw.
Yippie yi ayyyy.
Yippie yi ooooh.
Ghost Riders in the sky.
Zeke:
Their brands were still on fire,
their hooves were made of steel.
Tennessee:
Their horns were black and shiny,
and their hot breath he could feel.
Zeb:
A bolt of fear went through him.
as they thundered through the sky.
Five Bear Rugs:
For he saw the Riders coming hard,
and he heard their mournful cry.
Yippie yi ayyyy.
Yippie yi ooooh.
Ghost Riders in the sky. (They return backstage)
Fluffy: That scared me stiff, scared me stiff so bad that I realized that I hired a bunch of dumb
brunes.
Henry: My my. Now here she is, that delightful, delicate, dedicated dimple darling of the Dakotas.
The last of the big time swingers. Swinging Teddi Berra! Swing it Teddi!
(As a swing decends from the ceiling, a bear resembling Mae West swings back
and forth, and sings. While she does, Henry, and the heads on the wall,
make comments in awe of her beauty)
Max: Wowwee, here she comes...
Teddi: Well there he goes,
he hardly knows the heart he's breaking.
Henry: Lovely, lovely!
Teddi:I talked to him,
but I don't think he understood.
Buff: Oh sing it gal.
Teddi: Oh just forget about the plans
that we were making.
Henry: My my.
Teddi: Heart we did all that we could.
(Teddi then teases all the other bears, especially Henry in a Mae West accent,
as her swing ascends back into the ceiling)
Teddi: You all come up and see me some time, ya hear?!
Henry: Yeah, as soon as I find a ladder, I'll be right up! Uh-huh. (Ernest appears where Big Al was
playing a fiddle and wearing his hat)
Ernest: One night I left the wife at home and went out with the boys
I was acting like a Don Juan and making a lot of noise
Henrey: "You old lover boy!"
Ernest: A gogo girl called my hand, I said,
"I can't I'm a married man"
She said if you ain't a gonna steal, you better not prowl.
"He's a born loser!"
Don't dosido with a gogo, if you can't bite don't growl.
If you can't bite don't growl.
(Ernest goes away and Henry stays)
Henry: Look for the bare necessities, those simple bare necessities, forget about your worries and
your strife, I mean those bare nece......
Fluffy: Boo, hiss.
Henry: Excuse me sir, but you are being rude during this song, please knock it off.
Fluffy: Ok, I'll knock off the Country Bear Revue, there are plenty of starving artists in the world.
Henry: Oh um, my apologies sir, bring on the next act.(As Gomer accompanies him on the piano)
Ah, what could be nicer than a day at the beach? The tropical sun dancing on the silvery waves.
And the-hey! What is this? Rufus! (The curtain backdrop shows a winter scene with a snow-covered
moose.)
Rufus (Offstage): Huh?
Henry: Get on down here and change this thing!
Rufus (Offstage): Oh. (Noise backstage as Rufus rushes to fix the scenery.)
Henry (Laughs): Sorry folks. (Whispers) Gomer! Just play something! Anything! (Gomer plays
"Jingle Bells".) Anything but that. (Clamshell on Gomer's piano giggles.) You ready yet, Rufus?
(Rufus sounds panic stricken backstage as he changes the curtain to be a summer postcard.) Gomer?
(Laughs.) Ladies and gentlemen, Bunny, Bubble and Beulah.
The Sun Bonnets:
Well east coast bears are hip,
I really dig those styles they wear.
And the southern bears with the way they talk.
Melvin, Buff and Max: They knock me out when I'm down there.
The Sun Bonnets:
The Midwest farmer's daughter really makes you feel alright.
And the northern bears with the way they kiss.
Melvin, Buff and Max: They keep their boyfriends warm at night.
The Sun Bonnets:
I wish they all could be California bears.
I wish they all could be California.
I wish they all could be California bears.
The west coast has the sunshine,
And the bears all get so tan.
Melvin, Buff and Max: I dig a French bikini on Hawaiian dolls.
The Sun Bonnets:
And a palm tree in the sand.
I wish they all could be California bears.
I wish they all could be California.
I wish they all could be California bears.
California bears!
(They all go back under the stage and even Henry disappears into a blackout, an out of tune guitar
is heard strumming dimly. Big Al appears again where Ernest was)
Big Al: There was
Blood on the saddle.
Blood on the reigns.
And a great big puddle of
Blood on the ground. Hee hee (blackout)
Fluffy: Honestly I have no clue what happened. That was the single most greatest thing I have seen in
my life, that was hilarious! (Laughs and disappears from his box)
Henry: (Appears in his original spot) Well folks you have been a great audience today and I just
want to say, it is great being here at Disney's California Adventure! Now before you go us bears
have one more song for you and.......
Fluffy: Wait!
Henry: Huh? (Fluffy appears in his box again, wearing a blue sailor suit, smiling, and holding a
giant lollipop) Sir? Why, what happened to you?
Fluffy: I changed Henry, your show, why that giant bear changed my life and point of view on this
whole show! Why you bruins can stay as long as you'd like!
Henry: Why thank you sir, thank you very much! Sir it would be our honor if you'd join us in the
grand finale!
Fluffy: Why I would be honored to join you (All the bears minus Trixie and Ernest come out)
Zeke: One, two, three......
All: We've been on the run
Driving in the sun
Looking out for number one
California here we come
Right back where we started from
Bears and critters grab your guns
Your shadow weighs a ton
Crawling down the 101
California here we come
Right back where we started from
California!
Here we COOOOOOOOOOOOOOME! (All the bears disappear except for Henry, and Big Al who appears to be
confused)
Henry: Well folks enjoy the rest of your day at Disney's California Adventure, please gather all
your personal belongings and
Big Al: Walkin in a winter wonderland.
Henry: Wha?
Big Al: Walkin in a winter wonderland.
Henry: Al.
Big Al: Walkin in a winter wonderland.
Henry: AL!!!
Big Al: Huh?
Henry: Show's over big guy.
Big Al: Oh, he he. (Disappears)
Henry: Well goodbye folks gather your belongings and exit to your right, thanks for coming! Oh and
please do come again! (Disappears, the doors open and we exit)
