When Adam and Eve was in the Garden of Eden, they musta shook that thing
Well, the leaves started fallin'
The snake started crawlin'
He musta give her a diamond ring
Adam said to Eve, You just won't wait, Till I get out of this garden gate
When Adam and Eve was in the Garden of Eden, they musta shook that thing
When Adam and Eve was in the Garden of Eden, they musta shook that thing
Well, the leaves started fallin'
The snake started crawlin'
He musta give her a diamond ring
Eve said to Adam, "If you care for me
You would eat this fruit from the forbidden tree
When Adam and Eve was in the Garden of Eden, they musta shook that thing
When Adam and Eve was in the Garden of Eden, they musta shook that thing
Well, the leaves started fallin'
The snake started crawlin'
He musta give her a diamond ring
Eve said to Adam, Go and sleep in the crib
Adam said to Eve, I'm gonna sleep with my rib
When Adam and Eve was in the Garden of Eden, Sure they musta shook that thing
Well, the leaves started fallin'
The snake started crawlin'
He musta give her a diamond ring
Adam said to Eve, You just won't wait, Till I get out of this garden gate
When Adam and Eve was in the Garden of Eden, they musta shook that thing
When Adam and Eve was in the Garden of Eden, they musta shook that thing
Well, the leaves started fallin'
The snake started crawlin'
He musta give her a diamond ring
Eve said to Adam, "If you care for me
You would eat this fruit from the forbidden tree
When Adam and Eve was in the Garden of Eden, they musta shook that thing
When Adam and Eve was in the Garden of Eden, they musta shook that thing
Well, the leaves started fallin'
The snake started crawlin'
He musta give her a diamond ring
Eve said to Adam, Go and sleep in the crib
Adam said to Eve, I'm gonna sleep with my rib
When Adam and Eve was in the Garden of Eden, Sure they musta shook that thing
