Bobby Bare - Noah's Ark lyrics

(Dorsey Burnette - Barry DeVorzon) The Lord looked down And all he saw was sin So he said, I'm gonna start This world all over again Well, the skies turned black and the rain came down And it rained, rained, rained The thunder roared with the terrible sound And it rained, rained, rained So he said to Noah Build that ark, build it strong and true Then take two of everything Upon this ark with you So Noah and his sons built the mighty ark And it rained, rained, rained They worked by day and they worked by dark And it rained, rained, rained The people laughed at Noah's ark Not knowing of their fate And when they finally realized By then it was too late On came the animals two by two And it rained, rained, rained People cried Noah let us come with you And it rained, rained, rained But Noah said, People you've lived in sin Paid the Lord no mind Now there is no room for you Upon this ark of mine Oh well, the earth became one mighty sea And it rained, rained, rained What was said had come to be And it rained, rained, rained Gone was mountain, gone was land 'Neath the waters deep Only Noah's ark was saved Upon this mighty sea Now that you've heard This story my friend Don't think for a minute This can't happen again...
