Chorus	I know it, know it Indeed I know it, brother I know it - Wee! Dem bones gonna rise again!
Lyrics	Chorus Lord he'd thought he'd make a man So he took a little water and he took a little sand Thought he'd make a woman too But he didn't know quite what to do Chorus Took a rib from Adam's side And made Miss Eve to be his bride Placed them in a garden square Told them to eat whatever was there Chorus "To one tree you must not go. Leave them apples there to grow." Serpent coiled around the trunk At Miss Eve his eye he wunk Chorus First she took a little pull Then she filled her fig leaf full Adam took a little slice Smacked his lips and said "Twas nice!" Chorus Lord, he came a walking 'round Saw those apples all over the ground "Adam, Adam, where art though?" "Here I am Lord, comin' 'round now" Chorus "Been eatin' my apples, I believe" "No, my Lord, twas Miss Eve" "From this garden, you must get. And earn your living by your sweat" Chorus Set an angel at the door Told them to never come back no more This is the end, there ain't now more 'Cause Eve got the apple and Adam got the core Chorus
