They were a sinning That's exactly what I said And when God saw them sinning It hurt Him to his heart, it hurt Him so bad It made Him mad, it made Him so mad he was angry And when God got angry the sky turned dark And it was than that he told Noah to build the ark Who built the ark, Noah Who built the ark, Noah Who built the ark, Noah, Noah Noah built that ark Children stop to steel, listen to me God walked down by the Briny sea Beheld evil of the sinful men Declared that he would destroy the land Spoke to Noah Brother Noah stopped. He said look a here Noah build me an ark Won't you build it big and strong Build it 300 cubic long, 30 high, about 50 wide I want it to stand my rain and tide On this day I make my mark In a 100 years I want that ark Knocking thru with this evil land Not a living thing is gonna stand Except the things that I tell to you That I gonna need , when the world is new I've been east and I've been west I decided to put this world at rest I've been up and I've been down Nothing but evil all around I've seen brother turn against brother Up this high and it'll go no further Women weep and children mourn Sorry the day that men was born Sinful people one by one Sorry the day my wrath begun Sorry the day my wrath begun Sorry the day my wrath begun Sorry the day my wrath begun 'Cause it's gonna rain 'Cause it's gonna rain 'Cause it's gonna rain 'Cause it's gonna rain And all this land is my land Not a living thing is gonna stand 'Cause it's gonna rain 'Cause it's gonna rain 'Cause it's gonna rain 'Cause it's gonna rain Who built the ark? Noah. Yeah Who built the ark? Noah. Yeah Who built the ark? Noah Noah Noah built the ark When after God told him what to do Then the work began cut and hew Ringing o' the hammer was "judgment" Ringing o' the saw "God said repent" 100 years he hammered and sawed Building the ark by the grace of God After the foundation was laid Hewed down the timber and the ark was made Called in the animals two by two There was the Ox, the Camel and the Kangaroo Hallowed in the monkey and the crocodile He even made the animals they couldn't smile Packed them in the ark so tight The Owl couldn't get no sleep at night Called in Japheth and Shem and Ham God began to flood the land Raised his hand to heaven on high And knocked that sun and the moon from the sky Shook the mountains and disturbed the sea Hitched his reins to his Chariot Wheel Stepped on land and stood out on shore Declared this time couldn't be no more 'Cause it's gonna rain 'Cause it's gonna rain 'Cause it's gonna rain 'Cause it's gonna rain
