Bryan Duncan - Everything In The Garden Lyrics
I was the first man in Eden...back in the Garden had a great little placeIt was just me and the Lord and we never got bored...we invented the whole human raceThen we went for a walk in the evening...he said, "I can't help but notice you're blue"So the next thing he said was, "let me borrow a rib and we'll just see what a woman might do"Well, I slept through the whole operation ...awoke to find Eve at my sideAnd God said, "you can have everything in the gardenYou can name everything that you seeBut just remember one thing what the Devil may bringAnd stay away from the fruit of that tree"Well the first couple weeks was a pleasure... just enough for my new baby and meWe were never apart; we were lovers at heart....never came even close to that tree'Til I left her alone unattended and she returned from her first shopping spreeit was a sweet little find that I shoulda declined when she handed that mango to meNow were blaming everything on the Devil, but I remember what God said to me..he said, "you can have everything in the gardenYou can name everything that you seeJust remember one thing what the Devil may bringAnd stay away from the fruit of that tree"Back when the Earth was still all milk and honeyCouldn't get it right with only one rule to followGuess I need a lot of help from God AlmightyIf I want to get back to that Garden tomorrowCause you can have everything in the gardenYou can name everything that you seeJust remember one thing what the Devil may bringAnd stay away from the fruit of that treeOh stay away from the fruit of that treeStay away from the fruit of that treeStay away, stay away from the fruit of that treeStay away
