About

In this song, Elvis describes being so old that he has witnessed many of the events described in the bible.

One can’t help but notice some similarities to the classic Brooks/Reiner comedy routine “2000 Year Old Man,” which was recorded nine years earlier and deals with many of the same issues.

I Was Born About Ten Thousand Years Ago Lyrics

[Intro]
I saw old pharaoh's daughter bring Moses from the water
I'll lick the guy that says it isn't so

[Chorus 1]
I was born about ten thousand years ago
There is nothing in this world that I don't know
I saved king David's life and he offered me a wife
I said now you're talking business have a chair

[Chorus 2]
Yeah, I was born about ten thousand years ago
There is nothing in this world that I don't know
Saw Peter, Paul, and Moses playing ring around the roses
I'll lick the guy that says it isn't so

[Chorus 3]
I was born about ten thousand years ago
There is nothing in this world that I don't know
I saw old pharaoh's daughter bring Moses from the water
I'll lick the guy that says it isn't so

[Chorus 4]
I was there when old Noah built the ark
And I crawled in the window after dark
I saw Jonah eat the whale and dance with the lion's tail
And I crossed over Canaan on a log

[Chorus 3]
I was born about ten thousand years ago
There is nothing in this world that I don't know
I saw old pharaoh's daughter bring Moses from the water
I'll lick the guy that says it isn't so

[Chorus 2]
Yeah, I was born about ten thousand years ago
There is nothing in this world that I don't know
Saw Peter, Paul, and Moses playing ring around the roses
I'll lick the guy that says it isn't so

[Chorus 4]
I was there when old Noah built the ark
And I crawled in the window after dark
I saw Jonah eat the whale and Daniel twist the lion's tail
And I crossed over Canaan on a log

[Chorus 1]
I was born about ten thousand years ago
There is nothing in this world that I don't know
I saved king David's life and he offered me a wife
I said now you're talking business have a chair

[Chorus 2]
Yeah, I was born about ten thousand years ago
There is nothing in this world that I don't know
Saw Peter, Paul, and Moses playing ring around the roses
I'll lick the guy that says it isn't so
