"(Let Me Be Your) Teddy Bear" is a popular song. It was written by Kal Mann and Bernie Lowe and published in 1957.

The song was a US number-one hit for Elvis Presley during the summer of 1957, and his third of the four that he would have that year. "(Let Me be Your) Teddy Bear" would also hit number one on the R&B Best Sellers List, becoming his fourth number one on that chart . In addition the song would hit number one on the country charts for a single week .

A modified version of the song has often been used for Teddy Grahams commercials. Also, during the early years of Full House, the three main adult characters would often sing the song as a lullaby for Michelle Tanner (one of those three characters, Michelle's uncle Jesse Katsopolis, was a die-hard Elvis fan).

Disney featured a music video in the special DTV Romancin', set entirely to clips featuring the bear characters from the company's animated films, including an introduction by the Gummi Bears.
