Ever Since The World Began Lyrics

Yardbirds Ever Since The World Began

Ever since the world began
Satan's followed every man
Trappin' evil if he can
I tell you now his greatest plan

Invented when I cannot tell
Defied the thoughts of man so well
Man wants money for his need
But soon it sows it's evil seed

Unhappiness it only brings
As man wants more and better things
An' not enough the evil lies
For soon you'll find somebody dies

Throughout the years there have been wars
Power an' richness have been the cause
Trapped in money's evil net
Man wants more than he can get

You don't need money
No, no, no, no
You don't need money
No, no, no, no
You don't need money
No, no, no, no

It'll never bring you love
No more than the sun above
You'll never see the end
The money you will surely spend

But ask for help if you sin
Well acclaim yourself for the state you're in
The devil has you in his grasp
There ain't no mercy you can ask

More and more you will need an'
You're strangled in the clutch of greed
You can't get out, no place to go
You sold your soul, the answer's no
