Slow Animals Coming (Or Something Like That)

I really loved Dylan’s born again period but sometimes I think I might be wrong.
A children’s book maker is publishing a book based upon “God Gave Names To ll the Albums” and without wishing too be really, really difficult… it doesn’t hold up so great. Worst moment? The end… I think we know how it ends Dylan
here are the lyrics… singalong if you know the words…
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 . . .
