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"

He saw an animal up on a hill

Chewing up so much grass until it was filled

He saw milk comin' out, but he didn't know how

"Ah, think I'll call it a cow"

Horns on his head and they weren't too short

Real dirty face and a curly tail

Had wool on his back and hooves on his feet

Slithering his way through the grass
