Adam and EveBob Seger

Songwriter: Kasey Chambers Shane Nicholson

Producer: Bob Seger

[Verse 1: Bob Seger, Laura Creamer]
My name is Adam, my name is Eve
I was the first man to live and breathe
God made the ocean, He made it blue
He told us "Don't eat forbidden fruit"

[Verse 2: Bob Seger and Laura Creamer]
Oh, He can see us, hear what we say
But He was resting on that seventh day
She met a serpent that afternoon
He smiled at her and she broke the rules

[Chorus: Bob Seger and Laura Creamer]
Come on, we're leaving, no time to waste
Garden of Eden's no longer safe
Throw down that apple, that ship has sailed
We're on the run with God on our trail

[Verse 3: Bob Seger, Laura Creamer]
I can remember, I do recall
There were no weeds here, no thorns at all
I was misguided, I was misled
I asked for good but got evil instead

[Chorus: Bob Seger and Laura Creamer]
Come on, we're leaving, no time to waste
Garden of Eden's no longer safe
Throw down that apple, that ship has sailed
We're on the run with God on our trail
Throw down that apple, that ship has sailed
We're on the run with God on our trail

[Outro: Bob Seger and Laura Creamer]
My name is Adam, my name is Eve
I was the first man to live and breathe

On his studio albums, he also worked extensively with the Alabama-based Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section, which appeared on several of Seger’s best-selling singles and albums.
