Nina Simone - Forbidden Fruit lyrics
[Nina Simone - Forbidden Fruit lyrics]
Eve and Adam had a
Garden everything was great
Till 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 mighty sweet forbidden fruit
It's quite a treat forbidden fruit
Go ahead and taste it you
Don't wanna waste it
The Lord had said in the
Beginning everything is free
Except that apple that leads to sinning
So let that apple be
But Eve got tempted so she tried
It and as all chicks 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 hmm I see
I guess I'll have to teach you
A lesson about not minding me
Go on and eat forbidden fruit
It's mighty sweet forbidden fruit
It's quite a treat forbidden fruit
You're all indebted now you gonna get it
The Lord made Eve Adam's madam
Have his kids and all
Placed some labour laws on Adam and
He made the snake to fall
Ever since the days of Eden
Folks 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 always did it now you'll gonna get it
Forbidden fruit
Garden everything was great
Till 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 mighty sweet forbidden fruit
It's quite a treat forbidden fruit
Go ahead and taste it you
Don't wanna waste it
The Lord had said in the
Beginning everything is free
Except that apple that leads to sinning
So let that apple be
But Eve got tempted so she tried
It and as all chicks 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 hmm I see
I guess I'll have to teach you
A lesson about not minding me
Go on and eat forbidden fruit
It's mighty sweet forbidden fruit
It's quite a treat forbidden fruit
You're all indebted now you gonna get it

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 always did it now you'll gonna get it
Forbidden fruit
