Verse 1
[G]Now, the Bible tells a story 'bout Adam's rib.
[C]How the Lord made a woman for companionship,
Hell, the[G] first thing she did was[D] take a bit of that forb[G]idden fruit.
Verse 2
[G]I Guess we'll be paying till the end of time,
[C]At least that's how it is with that woman of mine,
Oh Lord!,[G] I think[D] I want [G]my rib back.
Chorus:
Well, thi[C]s is wrong and baby that ain't right,
But I'm w[G]orking trying to please that woman day and night
She's nev[C]er satisfied although I try to do the be[D]st that I can.
[G]This is gotta change or honey I'm gonna leave,
[C]Well I won't let evolution make a Monkey outta me
Oh Lord!,[G] I think[D] I want my rib back[G]
Verse 3
There's been a hole in my wallet and a pain in my side,
Every since I made that girl my blushing bride
Her daddy calls her angel and her mama calls her three times a night
Verse 4
Her cousin's on my sofa, her sisters got my car
Her brother's drank my liquer like my house was a bar,
Oh Lord!, I think I want my rib back
Chorus once Again
