In A Gadda Da Vida was actually In The Garden of Eden but the singer was so stoned that he couldn't sing the words correctly. Once you understand the actual title then you understand his point which was having sex like Eve did to Adam.

BTW, I always thought Cracklin Rose was about a prostitute but Neil says it's Canadian slang for alcohol. Doesn't make sense with the alcohol explanation.

Actually Cracklin Rose is a wine. The song is about an Indian Reservation up in Canada where the men out number the women by a great number. So on the weekends the guys without girls go get a store bought woman (Cracklin' Rose) and have a good time with "a poor man's lady."
