Eddie & The Cruisers – Garden Of Eden lyrics

It was the Garden of Eden
The beginning of time
Adam said to Eve
Little girl I wanna make you mine

Eve said now wait a minute big boy
Not so fast
I wanna think this over
I want a love that's gonna last

Then Eve said to Adam
Catch me if you can
It's been the same old story ever since the world began

Honey I'll give you anything in this great big world
She said forget those rotten apples
I'll take some diamonds and some pearls

He said honey I don't quite know
Exactly what you mean
She said ever since she could remember
She had this pretty dream

Then Eve said to Adam
Catch me if you can
It's been the same old story ever since the world began

He got this hungry feeling
And my blood is running hot
I don't know exactly what it it I want
I just know it's something that you got

Eve said come here little boy
Come and sit beside my fire
Wrap your self around my finger
And I'll cool your desire

Eve said look here Adam honey
I got a reputation to protect
If you want my love and kisses
It's gonna take a little respect

Adam fell down on his knees
And looked up in the sky
He said I think I get the picture Lord
There's more that meets the eye

Then Eve said to Adam
Catch me if you can
It's been the same old story ever since the world began
