On The 7th Day Lyrics - Etta James

Now I'm gonna tell you, so you'll understand 

How it all got started, how it all begin 

God made the heavens, God made the earth 

Made a man and a woman out of blood, sweat and dirt 

And He looked around the neighborhood 

And He said to His self, "This is good" 

God made the rivers and the mountains with his hands 

God made the wind to blow the shifting sands 

He put the fishes in the, in the deep blue sea 

Filled up the garden with flowers and the trees 

And God looked around the neighborhood 

And He said to His self, "This is good"

But the devil he was jealous, took the apple in his hand 

The devil tempted woman and woman tempted man 

God, He mourned and the tears rolled down His face 

It broke His heart to see His children fall from grace 

And on the 7th day they say, "God rested" 

But you know that ain't the truth 

'Cause on the 7th day, God made the blue 

'Cause on the 7th day, God made the blue

Everybody gets the blues, everybody got to pay 

For the wicked things we do 

And what we put each other through 

And on the 7th day they say, "God rested" 

But you know that ain't the truth 

'Cause on the 7th day, God made the blue 

'Cause on the 7th day, God made the blue 

God made the blue
