Born About Six Thousand Years Ago Lyrics

#1 ill1
I was born about six thousand years ago
They ain't nothin' in this world that I don't know
I saw Old King Pharaoh's daughter find Lit -tle Moses on the water
And I can whip the man that says it is - n't so
#2:
ill1
I saw Noah when he built that famous ark
I slipped into it one night when it got dark
I saw Jonah swallowed by the whale, and I pulled the li - on's tail
I can whip the man that says it is - n't so
Chorus:
ill2
I'm an educated man, to get more sense within my head I plan
Well, I've been on earth so long, and I used to sing a lit -tle song
While all of them old timers took their stand
Instrumental Break - as intro:
#3
Queen Elizabeth fell dead in love with me, (hee, hee, she did)
We was married in Mil-wauk-ee sec- ret - ly
Then I took her out and shook her, and I went with General Hooker
To fight mosquitoes down in Tenn-ess- ee.
#4
I taught Solomon his little A B C's (smart feller)
And through all his books, I tutored him with ease
Then I sailed out on the bay with Methuselah one day
And I played with his flowing whiskers in the breeze
Chorus:
ill2
I'm an educated man, to get more sense within my head I plan
Well, I've been on earth so long, and I used to sing a lit -tle song
While all of them old timers took their stand
Instrumental Break - as intro:
#5
I seen old Satan when he searched that Garden o'er, (old bugger)
Saw Adam and Eve driven from the door
When the apples they were eating, from the bushes I was a-peeping
I can prove it for I'm the man that ate the core
#6 ill
I saw Cain when he killed Abel with a spade
And I know the game was poker that they played
I was hid behind the shrub when he slapped him with that club
Poor old Abel caught him a-cheatin' and now he's dead
Chorus:
ill2
I'm an educated man, to get more sense within my head I plan
Well, I've been on earth so long, and I used to sing a lit -tle song
While all of them old timers took their stand
