The Animal Of Man 
Written and recorded by Roger Miller

C                     F
His footprints can be found 
                            C
On the graves of dead young soldiers 
                     G7
On the amber covered plains 
                             D7 G7
Killed by radio-active rains 

                      F
And his traces can be found 
                         C
In the dying streams and meadows 
                         G7
And he’ll kill you if he can 
                   C
He's the animal of man 

                      F
Yes his traces can be found 
                         C
In the scars of red-skin children 
                      G7
That have never fully healed 
                             
Ask a black man how he feels 

                      F
He's a nervous gifted child 
                     C
He's an old man been forgotten 
                G7
He's a military band 
                   C
He's the animal of man
