"If It Takes Every Rib I Got" lyrics

I ain't no different than any other man
'Bout passion and romance
I've made some mistakes, I've had the heartaches
Lord, I had to take a chance
And love is on a mountain waitin' way up high
I'll climb it stone by stone
It's worth every step, I don't wanna be left
Here in the garden alone

Well, Lord, You took a rib from Adam
And You made a little woman called Eve
If it ain't askin' way too much
Say, could You do a little somethin' for me?
Well, she ain't gotta be no angel
Man, I'm in a real tough spot
And I'm willin' to give 'em to You one by one
Well, if it takes every rib I got
If it takes every rib I got

Well, I think I've been in love maybe once or twice
But I don't think I've ever been loved
Been close to the fire, close to desire
Enough to know I'll never give up
Well, I know she's out there somewhere tonight
Layin' her heart on the line
I bet she's dealin' with the same old people
The same thing is crossin' her mind

Well, Lord, You took a rib from Adam
And You made a little woman called Eve
If it ain't askin' way too much
Say, could You do a little somethin' for me?
Well, she ain't gotta be no angel
Man, I'm in a real tough spot
And I'm willin' to give 'em to You one by one
Well, if it takes every rib I got
Well, Lord, You took a rib from Adam
And You made a little woman called Eve
If it ain't askin' way too much
Say, could You do a little somethin' for me?
Well, she ain't gotta be no angel
Man, I'm in a real tough spot
And I'm willin' to give 'em to You one by one
Well, if it takes every rib I got
If it takes every rib I got
