Who wrote a song that started with the lyrics Adam was the first man that ever was invented. He lived all alone and he never was contented. They made him out of mud the days gone by and hung him on?

The song you're referring to is "Adam" by the songwriter and musician Murray McLauchlan. It reflects themes of loneliness and the human condition through the biblical figure of Adam. The lyrics you mentioned capture the essence of Adam's isolation and discontent in the Garden of Eden.
