I was born about ten thousand years ago There ain't nuthin' in this world that I don't know I saw Peter Paul and Moses playin' ring-around-the-roses And I'll whup the guy what says it isn't so Well, I'm just a lonesome traveler, a great historical bum Highly educated through history I have come I built the Rock of Ages, it was in the year oh one And that's about the biggest thing that Man has ever done I saw Adam and Eve driven from the door I'm the guy that picked the figleaves that they wore And from behind the bushes peepin' saw the apple they was eatin' And I swear that I'm the one that et the core Now I built the garden of Eden, it was in the year oh two Joined the apple-pickers union and I always paid my dues I'm the man that signed the contract to raise the risin' sun And that's about the biggest thing that Man has ever done I taught Samson how to use his mighty hand I showed Columbus to this happy land And for Pharaoh's little kiddies I built all the pyramiddies And to the Sahara carried all the sand Now I was strawboss on the pyramids and the tower of Babel too I opened up the ocean, let the mighty children through I fought a million battles and I never lost a one And that's about the biggest thing that Man has ever done I taught Solomon his little ABC's I'm the first one to eat Limburger cheese And while floating down the bay with Methuseleh one day I saw his whiskers floating in the breeze Now I fought the revolution that set this country free It was me and a couple of Indians that dumped the Boston tea I won the battle of Valley Forge and the battle of Bully Run And that's about the biggest thing that Man has ever done Now Queen Elizabeth she fell in love with me We were married in Milwaukee secretly But I got tired and shook her and ran off with General Hooker To go shootin' skeeters down in Tennessee [Repeat first two verses]Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
