[Verse 1]
Well, a hard-headed woman
A soft-hearted man
Been the cause of trouble
Ever since the world began

[Chorus]
Oh yeah (Oh yeah)
Ever since the world began
A hard-headed woman
Been a thorn in the side of man

[Verse 2]
Now Adam told to Eve
"Listen here to me
Don't you let me catch you
Messing round that apple tree"

[Chorus]
Oh yeah (Oh yeah)
Ever since the world began
A hard-headed woman
Been a thorn in the side of man

Oh yeah (Oh yeah)
Ever since the world began
A hard-headed woman
Been a thorn in the side of man
[Verse 3]
Samson told Delilah
Loud and clear
"Keep your cotton-picking fingers
Out my curly hair"

[Chorus]
Oh yeah (Oh yeah)
Ever since the world began
A hard-headed woman
Been a thorn in the side of man

[Verse 4]
I heard about a king
Who was doin' swell
Till he started playing
With that evil Jezebel

[Chorus]
Oh yeah (Oh yeah)
Ever since the world began
A hard-headed woman
Been a thorn in the side of man

[Verse 5]
I got a woman
A head like a rock
If she ever went away
I'd cry around the clock
[Chorus]
Oh yeah (Oh yeah)
Ever since the world began
A hard-headed woman
Been a thorn in the side of man
A hard-headed woman
Been a thorn in the side of man
