In the beginning God made the land Then He made the water and creatures, then He made man He was born with a passion, love and hate A restless spirit with a need for a mate But there was something that was missing, something lost So he came with the answer, here's what it cost One part love, one part wild One part lady, one part child I give you (Women, women) lots of pretty women (Men, men) they can't live without them (Women, women) lots of pretty women (Men, men) they can't live without them And in the garden, lust began The animal instinct, the wanton man She fed him with a hunger, an appetite And fillin' with emotion he took a bite It was one part love, one part child One part lover, one part wild I give you (Women, women) lots of pretty women (Men, men) they can't live without them (Women, women) lots of pretty women (Men, men) they can't live without them Skin on skin, let the love begin Women It was one part love, one part wild One part lover, one part child A whole lotta fire, a little bit of ice A whole lotta something you can't sacrifice I give you Hair, eyes, skin on skin Legs, (legs) thighs, (thighs) what's that spell? (what's that spell?_ (Women, women) oh, oh (Women, women) (Women, women) callin' every girl (Women, women) all around the world (Women) women, oh we can't live without them (Women, women)
