Jeff Black Noah's Ark
I weren't expecting no rainbows
Noah told them cackling hens
I weren't considered no sailor
And I hope that I don't have to do this again
How many times can you fly out
And leave me with an open empty
Hand this time will be the last time
I send that little bird to find land
For days it just kept raining
Oh the rain just kept coming on down
I thought I'd never get a sign
And I thought for sure that I was gonna drown
Then yonder her she come then flying
Until that day I couldn't sing a note
It's hard to wait for information
And I can't wait to dock this old boat
If I ever get to heaven
I'll admit I doubted some
I'll tell them everything that happened
And ask them why it took so long
And if they find my tools and timber
That I used to build her strong
I hope the fools that do remember
How on a sea of hope and faith
We drifted home
I'm pretty sure that someone will be there to meet us
Noah told them chickens to their face
And as he looked out from the mountain
He could see what time would do to this old
Place(is everybody coming with me
It'll take a little time to settle in
I hope everyone forgives me
Because this took a little longer than I planned
You all hold on to one another
And you make damn sure that you don't drift apart
Then we'll truck on down this mountain
And we'll find a level place
To make a brand new start
Then the sun just kind of peeked out
It was juts enough to make them feel assured
And the only thing that noah kept repeating
Was that he sure was glad to see that little bird.
Hello it's good to see you it's been a long long time
