I Want My Rib Back by Kenny Chesney Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Now the bible tells the story about Adam's rib
How the Lord made a woman for companionship
And the first thing she did
Was take a bite of that forbidden fruit
Well, I guess we'll be paying till the end of time
At least that's how it is with that woman of mine
Oh Lord, I think I want my rib back

[Chorus]
Now this is wrong and, baby, that isn’t right
And I'm working trying to please that woman day and night
She's never satisfied although I try to do the best that I can
Something’s got a change honey, I'm going to leave
I won't let evolution going to make a monkey out of me
Oh Lord, I think I want my rib back

[Verse 2]
There's been a hole in wallet and a pain in my side
Ever since I made that girl my blushing bride
Her daddy calls her angel
And her mom-ma calls her three times a night
Her cousins on my sofa, her sister's got my car
Her brother's drink my liquor like my house was a bar
Oh Lord, well, I think I want my rib back
[Chorus]
Now this is wrong and, baby, that isn’t right
And I'm working trying to please that woman day and night
She's never satisfied although I try to do the best that I can
Something’s got a change honey, I'm going to leave
I won't let evolution going to make a monkey out of me
Oh Lord, I think I want my rib back

[Outro]
Oh Lord, I think I want my rib back
