Tom: G
G
Now the bible tells the story about Adam's rib
C
How the Lord made a woman for companionship
G D7
And the first thing she did was take a bite of that forbidden fruit
G
Well I guess we'll be paying till the end of time
C
At least that's how it is with that woman of mine
G D7 G
Oh Lord I think I want my rib back
[Chorus]
C
Now this is wrong and baby that ain't right
G
And I'm huggin' tryin' to please that woman day and night
C D7
She's never satisfied although I try to do the best that I can
G
Somethings gotta change honey I'm gonna leave
C
I won't let evolution gonna make a monkey out of me
G D7 G
Oh Lord I think I want my rib back
[Verse 2]
G
There's been a hole in wallet and a pain in my side
C
Ever since I made that girl my blushing bride
G D7
Her daddy calls her angel and her momma calls her three times a night
G
Her cousins on the sofa her sister's got my car
C
Her brother's drink my liquor like my house was a bar
G D7 G
Oh Lord I think I want my rib back...........................Solo
[Chorus]
C
Now this is wrong and baby that ain't right
G
And I'm huggin' tryin' to please that woman day and night
C D7
She's never satisfied although I try to do the best that I can
G
Somethings gotta change honey I'm gonna leave
C
I won't let evolution gonna make a monkey out of me
G D7 G
Oh Lord I think I want my rib back
