It was the Garden of Eden, the beginning of time
Adam said to Eve, "Little girl, I wanna make you mine"
So wait a minute big boy, not so fast
I wanna think this over, want a love that's gonna last
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
So forget those rotten apples
I'll take some diamonds and some pearls
He said, "I don't know much
I can wonder what you mean"
Ever since she could remember
She's had this pretty dream
Eve said to Adam, "Catch me if you can"
It's been the same old story ever since the world began
♪
Well, I got this hungry feeling
My blood is running hot
I'm not sure what it is
I wanted something that you got
Said, "Come here, little boy
Come and sit beside my fire
Wrap yourself around my finger
I'll cool your desire"
So wait a minute Adam honey
Got a reputation to protect
You want my love and kisses
Gonna take a little respect
He fell down on his knees
Looked up in the sky
Said, "I think I get the picture, Lord
There's more to this than meets the eye"
Eve said to Adam, "Catch me if you can"
It's been the same old story ever since the world began
