    I Was Born Ten Thousand Years Ago
    (aka "The Liar"; "The Bragging Song"; "I Was Born About Ten Thousand Years Ago"; "I Was Borned About Four Thousand Years Ago")
    (Traditional)
    Performer(s): Kelly Harrell
    and multiple other artists



    I was born ten thousand years ago
    And there's nothing in this world that I don't know
    I saw Pater, Paul, and Moses playing ring around the roses
    And I'll lick the guy that say it isn't so

    I saw Satan when he looked the garden o'er
    I saw Eve and Adam driven from the door
    And behind the bushes peepin', saw the apple they were eatin'
    And I swear that I'm the guy that ate the core

    I saw Jonah when he was within the whale
    And thought he'd never live to tell the tale
    But old Jonah'd eaten garlic, and he gave the whale the colic
    So he coughed him up and let him out of jail

    I saw Israel in the battle of the Nile
    The arrows were flying thick and fast and wild
    I saw David with his sling pop Goliath on the wing
    I was doing forty seconds to the mile

    I saw Sampson when he laid the village cold
    Saw Daniel tame the lions in their hold
    I helped build the Tower of Babel up as high as they were able
    And there's many other things I haven't told

    I taught Soloman his little A-B-C's
    I helped Brigham Young to make limberger cheese
    And while sailing down the bay with Methusala one day
    I saved his flowing whiskers from the breeze

    Queen Elizabeth, she fell in love with me
    We were married in Milwaukee secretly
    But I schemed around and shook her, then she went with General Hooker
    To shoot mosquitoes down in Tenessee

    I remember when the country had a king
    I saw Cleopatra pawn her wedding ring
    And I saw th flags a'flyin' when George Washington stopped lyin'
    On the night when Patty first begin to sing

    So, you see I am an educated man
    To keep my brains in my head I plan
    Cause I been on earth so long, that I use to sing a song
    While Abraham and Issac played the band

    I was born ten thousand years ago
    And there's nothing in this world that I don't know
    I saw Peter, Paul and Moses playing ring-around-the-roses
    And I can lick the guy that says it isn't so
