Now the Bible tells a story bout Adam's rib

How the Lord made a woman for companionship

Hell the first thing she did

Was take a bite of the forbidden fruit



I guess we'll be paying 'til the end of time

At least that's how it is with that woman of mine

Oh Lord, I think I want my rib back



Now this is wrong and baby that ain't right

I'm tryin' to please that woman day and night

She's never satisfied although I try to do the best that I can

This has gotta change or honey I'm gonna leave

I won't let evolution make a monkey out of me

Oh Lord, I think I want my rib back



There's been a hole in my wallet and a pain in my side

Ever since I made that girl my blushin bride

Her daddy calls her angel and her momma calls her 3 times a night

Her cousin's on my sofa, her sisters got my car

Her brother's drinkin my liquior like my house was a bar

Oh Lord, I think I want my rib back



Well now, this is wrong and baby that ain't right

I'm workin tryin to please that woman day and night

She's never satisfied although I try to do the best that I can

This has gotta change or honey I'm gonna leave

I won't let evolution make a monkey out of me

Oh Lord, I think I want my rib back



Oh Lord I think I want my rib back
