[Em]Man gave names to all the animals
In the be[B]ginning, in the be[Em]ginning.
[Em]Man gave names to all the animals
In the be[B]ginning, long time a[Em]go.
{eoc}
[Em]He saw an animal that liked to [B]growl,
Big furry paws and he liked to [Em]howl,
Great big furry back and furry [A]hair.
[B]"AaaH, think I'll call it a [Em]bear."
{c:Chorus:}

[Em]Man gave names to all the animals
In the be[B]ginning, in the be[Em]ginning.
[Em]Man gave names to all the animals
In the be[B]ginning, long time a[Em]go.
{eoc}
[Em]He saw an animal up on a [B]hill
Chew'n up so much grass until she was [Em]filled.
He saw milk comin' out but he didn't know [A]how.
[B]"AaaH, think I'll call it a [Em]cow."
{c:Chorus:}
{soc}
[Em]Man gave names to all the animals
In the be[B]ginning, in the be[Em]ginning.

In the be[B]ginning, long time a[Em]go.
{eoc}
[Em]He saw an animal that liked to [B]snort,
Horns on his head and they weren't too [Em]short.
It looked like there wasn't nothin' that he couldn't [A]pull.
[B]"AaaH, think I'll call it a [Em]bull."
{c:Chorus:}

[Em]Man gave names to all the animals
In the be[B]ginning, in the be[Em]ginning.
[Em]Man gave names to all the animals
In the be[B]ginning, long time a[Em]go.
{eoc}
[Em]He saw an animal leavin' a muddy [B]trail,
Real dirty face and a curly [Em]tail.
He wasn't too small and he wasn't too [A]big.
[B]"AaaH, think I'll call it a [Em]pig."
{c:Chorus:}

[Em]Man gave names to all the animals
In the be[B]ginning, in the be[Em]ginning.
[Em]Man gave names to all the animals
In the be[B]ginning, long time a[Em]go.
{eoc}
[Em]Next animal that he did [B]meet
Had wool on his back and hooves on his [Em]feet,
Eating grass on a mountainside so [A]steep.
[B]"Aaah, think I'll call it a [Em]sheep."
{c:Chorus:}
{soc}
[Em]Man gave names to all the animals
In the be[B]ginning, in the be[Em]ginning.
[Em]Man gave names to all the animals
In the be[B]ginning, long time a[Em]go.
{eoc}
[Em]He saw an animal as smooth as [B]glass
Slithering his way through the [Em]grass.
Saw him disappear by a tree near a [A]lake . . . [B] aaah!
