When Adam when out to name the animals
   Chord diagramG7G7                   Chord diagramC majorC
He sat on a rock and he figured

Horse and cow and goat and a sheep
         Chord diagramG7G7                         Chord diagramC majorC
Were the best names that he could deliver
     Chord diagramA augmentedA                   Chord diagramD MajorD
But Eve looked around at all of that glory
       Chord diagramG7G7                        Chord diagramC majorC
Said, "Hon, I think we should consider
                      Chord diagramD MajorD
Something a bit more unique and refined
    Chord diagramG7G7             Chord diagramC majorC
For each and every critter"

    Chord diagramD7D7                   Chord diagramG7G7
Exultation of lark and a murder of crow
  Chord diagramC majorC                           Chord diagramD7D7
Chord diagramA augmentedA simple flock of sheep and a herd of deer
       Chord diagramG7G7                  Chord diagramC majorC      Chord diagramG+G  Chord diagramC majorC
It's a bask of crocodiles, sleuth of bear

                           Chord diagramD MajorD
Adam looked shocked and he scratched his head
Chord diagramG7G7                        Chord diagramC majorC
Eve stood there happy and beaming
                        Chord diagramD MajorD
The animals gathered in close to their feet
     Chord diagramG7G7                          Chord diagramC majorC
With roars of delight, barks and singing
     Chord diagramA augmentedA              Chord diagramD MajorD
She's on a roll and just getting started
    Chord diagramG7G7                          Chord diagramC majorC
The birds and beasts held their breath
                      Chord diagramD MajorD
What fine appellation would they receive
    Chord diagramG7G7                         Chord diagramC majorC
And which one of them would be next?

Chorus:
N.C.   Chord diagramC majorC                  Chord diagramA augmentedA
It's a team of oxen and a rob of kangaroo
       Chord diagramDm7Dm7                         Chord diagramG+G
It's a charm of finch if there are more than two

All of that naming lasted into the night
Chord diagramG7G7                   Chord diagramC majorC
Even the insects had groupings
                              Chord diagramD MajorD
Eve was still bright eyed and willing to finish
       Chord diagramG7G7                          Chord diagramC majorC
Though shoulders and fig leaf were drooping
 Chord diagramA augmentedA                       Chord diagramD MajorD
Adam said, “Darling, I'm proud and amazed
       Chord diagramG7G7                   Chord diagramC majorC
You're really one heck of a woman
                           Chord diagramD MajorD
So, lets go to sleep and tomorrow we'll rise
    Chord diagramG7G7                             Chord diagramC majorC
And start naming rocks, plants and woodlands”

It's a colony of rabbit and a sounder of boar
   Chord diagramDm7Dm7                   Chord diagramG+G
An ambush of tigers, now just a little more

Sighed with satisfaction and she went to bed
