Buddy Houghtaling - Mr. Darwin lyrics

[Verse 1] Mr. Darwin, I address you As the subject of this song And I hope you're not offended When I tell you that you're wrong But when you tell me that My ancestor's a flower or a tree Mr. Darwin I have to disagree You said that we were slimey worms That crawled out of the sea And though I am no scientist I know that wasn't me I don't know just what possessed you To say all the things you said But when Jesus comes Your face will sure be red [Chorus] For it was God who formed me from the dust And gave my body shape It is He who I descended from And not some hairy ape And it is He that loves and cares for me This much I know is true And Mr. Darwin Jesus Christ loves you [Verse 2] I have a little dog at home He's got a lot to give And though he is my little friend He's not my relative And when I go into the zoo To look at all the living things It's just a visit And not a family gathering [Chorus] For it was God who formed me from the dust And gave my body shape It is He who I descended from And not some hairy ape And it is He that loves and cares for me This much I know is true And Mr. Darwin Jesus Christ loves you [Verse 3] I cannot condemn you For the things you tried to say All I know is you and I Were never made that way And though my little furry friends Show similarities Let's not make A monkey out of me Mr. Darwin, when the life you led In Heaven's court is tried I hope you changed the tune you sang Some time before you died Cause when Jesus comes He's gonna take His children off the ground And you're just gonna Have to stick around [Chorus] For it was God who formed me from the dust And gave my body shape It is He who I descended from And not some hairy ape And it is He that loves and cares for me This much I know is true And Mr. Darwin Mr. Darwin Jesus Christ loves you *** Thanks for correction of these Lyrics
