Born About Six Thousand Years Ago

歌詞

I was born about six thousand years ago They ain't nothin' in this world that I don't know I saw Old King Pharaoh's daughter find Little Moses on the water And I can whip the man that says it isn't so I saw Noah when he built that famous ark I slipped into it one night when it got dark I saw Jonah swallowed by the whale, and I pulled the lion's tail I can whip the man that says it isn't so I'm an educated man, to get more sense within my head I plan Well, I've been on earth so long, and I used to sing a little song While all of them old timers took their stand Queen Elizabeth fell dead in love with me, (hee, hee, she did) We was married in Milwaukee secretly Then I took her out and shook her, and I went with General Hooker To fight mosquitoes down in Tennessee. I taught Solomon his little A B C's (smart feller) And through all his books, I tutored him with ease Then I sailed out on the bay with Methuselah one day And I played with his flowing whiskers in the breeze I'm an educated man, to get more sense within my head I plan Well, I've been on earth so long, and I used to sing a little song While all of them old timers took their stand I seen old Satan when he searched that Garden o'er, (old booger) Saw Adam and Eve driven from the door When the applese they were eating, from the bushes I was a-peeping I can prove it from the man that ate the core I saw Cain when he killed Abel with a spade And I know the game was poker that they played I was hid behind the shrub when he slapped him with that club Poor old Abel caught him a-cheatin', and now he's dead I'm an educated man, to get more sense within my head I plan Well, I've been on earth so long, and I used to sing a little song While all of them old timers took their stand
