Dylan, Bob - Man Gave Names To All The Animals Lyrics
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.
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
He saw milk coming 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 nothing that he couldn't pull
"Ah, I'll 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 leaving a muddy trail
Real dirty face and a curly trail
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 dissappear by a tree near a lake .....

A great song from a great album. I've not heard this one for years - excellent! Thanks!!
Absolutely love this song such great memories as a young Christian listening to slow train coming album
And the serpent said unto the woman,"No,you will not die if you eat of that tree!"Sound familiar?
So so good!
One of the first songs they taught me to play when I started guitar lessons at school on the late seventies, what a memories, thanks for posting
Dear Elston, thank you very much for sharing that! Would it be possible to have the reference of this recording (place / date) so I can cite it, please? I'm writing a thesis on French translations of Dylan.
absolutely not.
@Elston Gunn ok, too bad. There are some interesting variations to study with the original studio version. I guess I will just have to look for other live versions I can cite. 😉

Happy Birthday today(April 4) to Pick Withers. Cheers!

💙🙏🏾💙🙏🏾
Some good "jiving" here by the great poet and band.
Great song,,,,
Animals are our ancient brothers and sisters. They enjoy a seamless presence- a lyrical unity with the earth. Animals live outside in the wind, in the waters, in the mountains and in the clay.the knowing of the earth is in them.
Gracias elston por tus vídeos.
J'adore souvenir ...
One of my favorites.....
“Man Gave Names to All The Animals “ in the beginning . This is biblical ; Bob knows his scriptures. Dylan is naturally gifted ; he can put almost anything to song.But he is also humble and said “music chose him”❤️❤️❤️
What an amazing version...
Fun song raggae
MERCI ELSTON
