George Jones & Tammy Wynette - Noah and the Ark lyrics

[Verse 1: George Jones] Well old Noah picked up a hammer and said I need a [?] I go for wood I'mma going to build myself an ark 'Cause there's going to be a flood Well he worked and told everhbody get ready Or you're going to drown And when he got it build he said "hold up" Before the rain comes a pouring down [Hook: George Jones] He loaded two of a kind of everything that lived On earth and then he closed the door His wife went along and beared three sons And their wives were all on board Well the water destroyed evething on earth Noah told the men he's not to blame For 40 long days and nights it fell And don't you know it was a mighty rain [Verse 2: George Jones] Well the water was deeper than the trees And the web of the highest hill They sailed along for days and days Till at last the ark stood still Then Noah opened up the wind the wives And the dove could look about He knew there was land when the dove returned With an olive leaf in his mouth [Hook: George Jones] (x2) [Outro: George Jones] (x2) Well don't you know it was a mighty rain Don't you know it was a mighty rain
