Noah was a carpentar, went walking in the dark

G                                                C
He tumbled on a lumber pile and built himself an ark.

C                         F
He called in the animals, two by two

G                       C
The hip hipopotamus and kick kangaroo.
Chorus [Verse 2]
C                         F
Joseph was a shepherd, he watched his father's goats.

    G                                C
His father always dressed him in the very loudest coats.

    C                               F
His brothers didn't like it so they threw him in a well.

G                             C
Joseph went to heaven and the others went, well...
Chorus [Verse 3]
C                        F
Jonah was a traveler, so goes the Bible tale.

   G                            C
He booked steerage passage on a Trans-Atlantic whale.

   C                                   F
He didn't like the service, though the whale he did his best.

   G                               C
So Jonah pushed the button and the whale he did the rest.
Chorus [Verse 4]
  C                      F
Salome was a dancer, she did the hoochie cooch.

    G                                   C
And when she danced before the king she didn't wear too mooch.

    C                         F
The king said, "Salome, we'll have no scandal here."

  G                                 C
Salome said, "To heck with ya!" and kicked the chandalier.

Shadrack, Meshack, and Abednigo,

G                               C
Didn't like the king's ways, so out they had to go.

   C                                F
He threw them in a firey furnace to burn them up to chaff,

         G                           C
But they wore asbesots underwear and gave the king a laugh.
Chorus [Verse 6]
C               F
God made Satan, Satan made sin.

G                       C
God made a hot place to put Satan in.

C                        C
Satan didn't like and he said he wouldn't stay.

          G                          C
He's been acting like the devil ever since that day.
