Chewing up so much grass until she was filled

Horns on his head and they weren't too short

   Em                                                A

Real dirty face and a curly tail

Em                                     A

 Next animal that he did meet

Had wool on his back and hooves on his feet

Em                              A
Eating grass on a mountainside so steep

B               B7        Em
"Ah, think I'll call it a sheep"

 He saw an animal as smooth as glass

B7                              Em
 Slithering his way through the grass

Em                                 A          B
Saw him disappear by a tree near a lake ...
