Lirieke: Johnny Cash. Johnny 99. Ballad Of The Ark.

Well I tell you a story about a good man

Who had many a problem before he reached dry land

It ain't easy for a good man to go down no it ain't easy for a good man to go down

On the earth there was trouble sorrow and pain

So the Lord said to Noah I'm gonna make it rain

It ain't easy for a good man to go down no it ain't easy for a good man to go down

Noah gathered his sons and the ark it was raised

Two by two came the animals that they might be saved

It ain't easy...

[ guitar ]


Well it rainded forty days and it rained forty nights

All the earth it was covered the mountains out of sight

It ain't easy for a good man to go down no it ain't easy for a good man to go down

When the waters receded and the earth it was dry

The Lord said to Noah go forth and multiply

It ain't easy for a good man to go down no it ain't easy for a good man to go down

Yes the Lord made a ranbow way up in the sky

He promised no flood would ever murder you and die

It ain't easy for a good man to go down no it ain't easy for a good man to go down
