| Who built the Ark? |
| Noah, Noah |
| Who built the ark? |
| Brother Noah built the ark. (rpt. for chorus after
each verse) |
| |
| Now in went the anuimals one by one |
| The rhino chewing on a caraway bun |
| (Chorus....) |
| |
| Now in went the animals, two by two |
| The elephant and the kangaroo |
| |
| In went the animals, three by three, |
| Two butterflies and a bumble bee |
| |
| In went the animals, four by four, |
| The big hippopotamus stuck in the door |
| |
| In went the animals five by five |
| Thus the animals did arrive |
| |
| In went the animals, six by six, |
| The hyaena laughing at the monkey's tricks. |
| |
| In went the animals, seven by seven, |
| The little pig thought they were going to heaven.
|
| |
| In went the animals, eight by eight |
| Some were early and some were late |
| |
| In went the animals nine by nine |
| Noah shouted "cut that line." |
| |
| In went the animals ten by ten, |
| The old Ark blew its whistle then |
| And nobody knew where they were at |
| 'Till the ark done bump on Ararat, |
| Hallelu! Hallelu! Hallelujah! Praise
the Lord! |
