I Want My Rib Back Lyrics

(Keith Whitley - Fred Koller)

Now the bible tells the story 'bout Adam's rib
How the Lord made a woman for companionship
The first thing she did was take a bite of that forbidden fruit
I guess we'll be payin' 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.

Chorus:
Now this is wrong, 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 outta me
Oh Lord, I think I want my rib back.Keith Whitley - I Want My Rib Back - http://motolyrics.com/keith-whitley/i-want-my-rib-back-lyrics.html

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 mamma calls her three times a night
Her cousin's on my sofa. her sister's got my car
Her brothers drink my liquor like my house was a bar
Oh Lord, I think I want my rib back
Oh Lord, I think I want my rib back.

Chorus:
Now this is wrong, 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 outta me
Oh Lord, I think I want my rib back...
