3 Em   D        C                B7

The crafty serpent said to Eve

 Em         D               C          B7

“Why not eat of the big fruit tree?

Em             D             C          B7

There’s no harm go on and eat!

          Em

Don’t stop!”      /  /  /

 

So she ate, it tasted sweet

said, “Adam, come and have a piece.

It’s so scrummy to eat, I cannot

stop!”

 

God walked by in the cool of the day,

and they hid from him as he walked that way!

Then he knew they’d disobeyed!

He said, “Stop!”

 

“HAVE YOU BOTH EATEN FROM THE TREE THAT

I COMMANDED YOU NOT TO EAT FROM?”

 

“It wasn’t my fault it was Eve to blame!

She’s the one who brought me shame!”

“No t’was the snake!” said she, and God

said, “Stop!”

 

Out of the garden they did go,

to work on the land in the rain and snow,

all because they ate, and didn’t

STOP!

STOP!

STOP!

STOP!
