Lyrics

I found a little plot of land in the Garden of Eden
It was dirt and dirt is all the same
I tilled it with my two hands and I called it my very own
There was no one to dispute my claim

Well, you'd be shocked at the state of things
The whole place had just cleared right out
It was hotter than Hell, so I lay me by a spring for a spell
As naked as a trout

Meet me in the Garden of Eden, bring a friend
Oh, we are gonna have ourselves a time
Oh, we are gonna have a garden party, it's on me
Oh, no, siree, it's my dime

We broke our hearts in the war between
Saint George and the dragon
But both in equal parts are welcome to come along
Oh, I'm inviting everyone

Farewell to loves that I have known
Even muddiest waters run
But I believe in innocence, little darling, start again
Oh, I believe in everyone
