Adam and Eve

Adam and Eve
by

Bob Marley


The lord named Adam and Eve,
to live a happy life.
In the Garden of Eden,
but they disobeyed.

I wanna know,
why they sin,
in the Garden of Eden.

It`s a devilman`s affair,
in the shake of a surfband.

And they broke the fruit of life
and everyone of us is living in sin.

Any anywhere you go,
woman is the root of all evil.

He was the first one to break a fruit
and everyone of us is living in sin.

The lord named Adam and Eve,
to live a happy life.
In the Garden of Eden,
but they disobeyed.

I wanna know,
why they sin,
in the Garden of Eden.

It`s a devilman`s affair,
in the shake of a surfband.

And they broke the fruit of life
and everyone of us is living in sin.

Any anywhere you go,
woman is the root of all evil.

He was the first one to break a fruit
and everyone of us is living in sin.


This is an early single by Bob Marley.
Because it hasn't been published as a part of an album it is not very known but it is a great song.
You can click the title to hear it on youtube.

I could I will said...

Before you jump to the conclusion that this is a sexist song, I ask you to think again.

Isn't he actually criticizing the worldwide sexism that sees "woman as the root of all evil"?

That's how I like to see it.

And afterall, she gave him the apple but "he was the first one to break the fruit"!
