[Verse 1] [D]I w[A]as b[D]orn about 10 ,000 years ago There ain't nothin' in the world that I don't [A]know I saw [D]Peter, Paul and Moses playin' [G]ring around the roses I [A]like the guy that says it isn't [D]so[A][D] I was there when Gabriel [A]searched the [D]garden o 'er Saw even Adam flyin' from the [A]door And be[D]hind the gate a -peepin' Saw the [G]apple they were keepin' I [A]swear that I'm the guy who ate the [D]core [A]I s[D]aw Cain and Abel playin' in the glade I am certain it was poker that they [A]played, But on one [D]point there's a rub, Did he hit [G]him with a club, Or per[A]haps it was a diamond or a [D]spade.[A][D] I saw Solomon in all his wife's affair, I saw Absalom hanging [A]by the hair, And when I [D]saved King David's life, And [G]he offered me a wife, I said, [A]now you're talking business, have a [D]chair.[A][D] Say I was present when they sopped up Caesar's gore, And the Senators were skating [A]round the floor. It was [D]I who swiped the crown that [G]he foolishly turned down, And I [A]hocked it in the shop in Baltimore. [D]I made a face at Empress Jos[A]ephine,[D] I regret to state the fact that [A]I was seen, So I [D]fought a duel that day with Napo[G]leon, And, say, I [D]popped him through the [A]goozle with a [D]bean.[A][D] Then I sail with Cleo[A]patra on the [D]Nile, And it was thus she whispered to me, with a [A]smile. Now, as [D]for Mark Antony, I have al[G]ways thought him phony, but, [A]honey, I am stuck on you a [D]pile.[A][D] Yes, I was born about a thousand years ago. There ain't nothin' in the world that I don't [A]know. I saw [D]Peter, Paul, and Moses playin' [G]ring around the roses. I'll [A]lick the guy that says it isn't [D]so. [G]
