WHO BUILT THE ARK?

Chorus:
Who built the ark? Noah! Noah!
Who built the ark?
Brother Noah built the ark
(Repeat Twice)

Old man Noah built the ark
He built it out of hickory bark
He built it long, both wide and tall
With plenty of room for the large and small

Repeat Chorus

In came the animals, two by two
Hippopotamus and kangaroo
In came the animals three by three
Two big cats and a bumblebee

Repeat Chorus

in came the animals, four by tour
Two through the window and two through the door
In came the animals, five by five
The bees came swarming from the hive

Repeat Chorus

In came the animals, six by six
Elephant laughed at the monkey's tricks
In came the animals seven by seven
Giraffes and the camels looking up to heaven

Repeat Chorus

In came the animals, eight by eight
Some on time and the others were late
In came the animals, nine by nine
Some were laughin' and some were cryin'

Repeat Chorus

In came the animals, ten by ten
Time for the voyage to begin
Noah said. 'Go shut the door!
The rain's started fallin' and we cart t take more'

Repeat Chorus
