Man Gave Names To All The Animals
|
(Bob Dylan)
|
|
Man gave names to all the animals
|
In the beginning, in the beginning
|
Man gave names to all the animals
|
In the beginning, long time ago
|
|
He saw an animal that liked to growl
|
Big furry paws and he liked to howl
|
Great big furry back and furry hair
|
"Ah, think I'll call it a bear"
|
|
Man gave names to all the animals
|
In the beginning, in the beginning
|
Man gave names to all the animals
|
In the beginning, long time ago
|
|
He saw an animal up on a hill
|
Chewing up so much grass until she was filled
|
He saw milk comin' out but he didn't know how
|
"Ah, think I'll call it a cow"
|
|
Man gave names to all the animals
|
In the beginning, in the beginning
|
Man gave names to all the animals
|
In the beginning, long time ago
|
|
He saw an animal that liked to snort
|
Horns on his head and they weren't too short
|
It looked like there wasn't nothin' that he couldn't pull
|
"Ah, think I'll call it a bull"
|
|
Man gave names to all the animals
|
In the beginning, in the beginning
|
Man gave names to all the animals
|
In the beginning, long time ago
|
|
He saw an animal leavin' a muddy trail
|
Real dirty face and a curly tail
|
He wasn't too small and he wasn't too big
|
"Ah, think I'll call it a pig"
|
|
Man gave names to all the animals
|
In the beginning, in the beginning
|
Man gave names to all the animals
|
In the beginning, long time ago
|
|
Next animal that he did meet
|
Had wool on his back and hooves on his feet
|
Eating grass on a mountainside so steep
|
"Ah, think I'll call it a sheep"
|
|
Man gave names to all the animals
|
In the beginning, in the beginning
|
Man gave names to all the animals
|
In the beginning, long time ago
|
|
He saw an animal as smooth as glass
|
Slithering his way through the grass
|
Saw him disappear by a tree near a lake
