Oscar Brown, Jr. - Forbidden Fruit Lyrics

Forbidden fruit

Eve and Adam had a garden everything was great
Until one day a boy says "Pardon Miss my name is Snake
See that apple over yonder if you'll take a bite
You and Adam both are bound to have some fun tonight"

Go on and eat forbidden fruit
It's quite a treat forbidden fruit
It's mighty sweet treat forbidden fruit
Go ahead and taste it, you don't wanna waste it

The Lord had said in the beginning, "Everything is free
'Cept that apple that leads to sinning so let that apple be"
But Eve got tempted so she tried it and as chicks can do
Teaser her man till he decided he'd just try some too

Go on and eat forbidden fruit
It's mighty sweet forbidden fruit
It's quite a treat forbidden fruit
Go ahead and bite it, I bet you'd be delighted

I hate to tell you all what followed the Lord was most upset
Saw them making love and hollered, "What have you to add"
And when they made a full confession the Lord said "Well I see
I'll just have to teach you a lesson about not minding me"

Go on and eat forbidden fruit
It's quite a treat forbidden fruit
It's mighty sweet forbidden fruit
You're all indebted now you gonna get it

The Lord made Eve be Adam's madam have his kids and all
Placed some labor laws on Adam and he made the snake to fall
Ever since the days of Eden this world's been sinful my
Nowadays they're even eating apples in their pie

Go on and eat forbidden fruit
It's mighty sweet forbidden fruit
It's quite a treat forbidden fruit
Go ahead and taste it, you don't wanna waste it
Oh, go ahead and bite it, I bet you'd be delighted
You're all indebted now you gonna get it

Forbidden fruit
Forbidden fruit
Forbidden fruit
Forbidden fruit
