i want my rib back
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 huggin´ 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 huggin´ 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.
