《I Was Born About 10，000 Years Ago / The Biggest Thing》歌词

[00:00:00] I was born about ten thousand years ago

[00:00:04] There ain't nuthin' in this world

[00:00:06] That I don't know

[00:00:07] I saw Peter Paul and Moses playin'

[00:00:10] Ring around the roses

[00:00:11] And I'll whup the guy what says it isn't so

[00:00:15] Well I'm just a lonesome traveler

[00:00:17] A great historical bum

[00:00:19] Highly educated through history I have come

[00:00:22] I built the Rock of Ages

[00:00:24] It was in the year oh one

[00:00:26] And that's about the biggest thing

[00:00:28] That Man has ever done

[00:00:29] I saw any look garden door

[00:00:33] I saw Adam and Eve driven from the door

[00:00:37] And from behind the bushes peepin'

[00:00:38] Saw the apple they was eatin'

[00:00:40] And I swear that I'm the one

[00:00:42] That et the core

[00:00:43] Garden of Eden

[00:00:45] Now I built the garden of Eden

[00:00:47] It was in the year oh two

[00:00:48] Joined the apple pickers union

[00:00:50] And I always paid my dues

[00:00:52] I'm the man that signed

[00:00:53] The contract to raise the risin' sun

[00:00:56] And that's about the biggest thing

[00:00:58] That Man has ever done

[00:00:59] I taught Samson how to use his mighty hand

[00:01:04] I showed Columbus to this happy land

[00:01:07] And for Pharaoh's little kiddies

[00:01:09] I built all the pyramiddies

[00:01:10] And to the Sahara carried all the sand

[00:01:14] Pyramids

[00:01:15] Now I was strawboss on the pyramids

[00:01:17] And the tower of Babel too

[00:01:19] I opened up the ocean

[00:01:20] Let the mighty children through

[00:01:22] I fought a million battles

[00:01:24] And I never lost a one

[00:01:26] And that's about the biggest thing

[00:01:28] That Man has ever done

[00:01:29] I taught Solomon his little ABC's

[00:01:33] I'm the first one to eat Limburger cheese

[00:01:37] And while floating down the bay

[00:01:39] With Methuseleh one day

[00:01:41] I saw his whiskers floating in the breeze

[00:01:45] Now I fought the revolution

[00:01:46] That set this country free

[00:01:48] It was me and a couple of Indians

[00:01:50] That dumped the Boston tea

[00:01:52] I won the battle of Valley Forge

[00:01:54] And the battle of Bully Run

[00:01:55] And that's about the biggest thing

[00:01:57] That Man has ever done

[00:01:59] Now Queen Elizabeth

[00:02:00] She fell in love with me

[00:02:02] We were married in Milwaukee secretly

[00:02:06] But I got tired and shook her

[00:02:08] And ran off with General Hooker

[00:02:10] To go shootin' skeeters down in Tennessee
