Born About Six Thousand Years Ago - Doc Watson[00:00:00]
Written by:Traditional[00:00:04]
I was born about six thousand years ago[00:00:09]
They ain't nothing in this world that I don't know[00:00:14]
I saw old king pharaoh's daughter[00:00:18]
Find little Moses on the water[00:00:20]
And I can whip the man that says it isn't so[00:00:22]
I saw Noah when he built that famous ark[00:00:27]
I slipped into it one night when it got dark[00:00:31]
I saw Jonah swallowed by the whale[00:00:35]
And I pulled the lion's tail[00:00:38]
I can whip the man that says it isn't so[00:00:39]
I'm an educated man[00:00:44]
To get more sense within my head I plan[00:00:46]
Well I've been on earth so long[00:00:50]
And I used to sing a little song[00:00:52]
While all of them old timers took their stand[00:00:54]
Queen Elizabeth fell dead in love with me[00:01:07]
Hee hee she did[00:01:10]
We was married in Milwaukee secretly[00:01:11]
Then I took her out and shook her[00:01:16]
And I went with general hooker[00:01:18]
To fight mosquitoes down in Tennessee[00:01:20]
I taught Solomon his little A B C's smart feller[00:01:24]
And through all his books[00:01:28]
I tutored him with ease[00:01:29]
Then I sailed out on the bay[00:01:32]
With Methuselah one day[00:01:34]
And I played with his[00:01:36]
Flowing whiskers in the breeze[00:01:37]
I'm an educated man[00:01:40]
To get more sense within my head I plan[00:01:42]
Well I've been on earth so long[00:01:46]
And I used to sing a little song[00:01:48]
While all of them old timers took their stand[00:01:50]
I seen old Satan when he searched that garden over[00:02:03]
Old booger[00:02:06]
Saw Adam and eve driven from the door[00:02:07]
When the apples they were eating[00:02:11]
From the bushes I was a peeping[00:02:13]
I can prove it from the man that ate the core[00:02:15]
I saw Cain when he killed Abel with a spade[00:02:19]
And I know the game was poker that they played[00:02:23]
I was hid behind the shrub when[00:02:27]
He slapped him with that club[00:02:30]
Poor old Abel caught him a cheating[00:02:31]
And now he's dead[00:02:33]
I'm an educated man to get more[00:02:35]
Sense within my head I plan[00:02:38]
Well I've been on earth so long[00:02:41]
And I used to sing a little song[00:02:43]
While all of them old timers took their stand[00:02:45]
