From: Johnny 99

Lyrics

[Verse]
Well I tell you a story about a good man
Who had many a problem before he reached dry land
It isn’t easy for a good man to go down no it isn’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 going to make it rain
It isn’t easy for a good man to go down no it isn’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 isn’t easy
Well it rained forty days and it rained forty nights
All the earth it was covered the mountains out of sight
It isn’t easy for a good man to go down no it isn’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 isn’t easy for a good man to go down no it isn’t easy for a good man to go down
Yes the Lord made a rainbow way up in the sky
He promised no flood would ever murder you and die
It isn’t easy for a good man to go down no it isn’t easy for a good man to go down
