i want my rib back

Lyrics

now the bible tells the story about adam's rib. how the lord made a woman for companionship. and the first thing she did, was take a bite of that forbidden fruit. well, i guess we'll be paying till 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. and i'm working tryin' to please that woman day and night. she's never satisfied although i try to do the best that i can. somethin's got a change honey, i'm gonna leave. i won't let evolution gonna make a monkey out of me, oh lord, i think i want my rib back. there's been a hole in wallet and a pain in my side, ever since i made that girl my blushing bride. her daddy calls her angel, and her momma calls her three times a night. her cousins on my sofa, her sister's got my car, her brother's drink my liquor like my house was a bar, oh lord, well, i think i want my rib back. now this is wrong and, baby, that ain't right. and i'm working tryin' to please that woman day and night. she's never satisfied although i try to do the best that i can. somethin's got a change honey, i'm gonna leave. i won't let evolution gonna make a monkey out of me, oh lord, i think i want my rib back. oh lord, i think i want my rib back.
