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 rightI'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 three times a night
Her cousin's on my sofa, her sisters got my carHer brother's drinkin' my liquor 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
