The Irish Rovers

A Flong time ago when the Gmearth was green
There was Cmore kinds of animals than Fyou'd ever seenFsus2
They'd Frun around free while the Gmearth was being born
But the Floveliest of them all was the CuniFcorn
There was Fgreen alligators and Gmlong necked geese
Some Chumpty backed camels and some Fsus2chimpanzeesFsus2
Some Fcats and rats and elephants, but Gmsure as you're born
The Floveliest of all was the CuniFcorn
F C F
Now FGod seen some sinning and it Gmgave him a pain
And he Csays, stand back, "I'm going to Fmake it rain!"Fsus2
He says, "FHey, brother Noah I'll Gmtell you what to do,
FBuild me a Cfloating Fzoo,"
"and Fsus2take some of them"
FGreen alligators and Gmlong necked geese
Some Chumpty backed camels and some Fsus2chimpanzeesFsus2
Some Fcats and rats and elephants, but Gmsure as you're born
FDon't you forget my CuniFcorn."
F C F
Old FNoah was there to Gmanswer the call
He Cfinished up making the ark just as the Frain started pourin'Fsus2
He Fmarched in the animals Btwo by two
And he Fcalled out as Cthey went Fthrough,
"Hey Lord,"
I Fgot your green alligators and Gmlong necked geese
Some Chumpty backed camels and some Fsus2chimpanzeesFsus2
Some Fcats and rats and elephants, but BLord, I'm so forlorn,
I Fjust can't see no CuniFcorn!"
F C F
Then FNoah looked out through the Gmdriving rain
Them Cunicorns were hiding, Fplaying silly gamesFsus2
FKicking and splashing while the Gmrain was pourin'
FOh, them silly CuniFcorns!"
There were Fgreen alligators and Gmlong necked geese
Some Chumpty backed camels and some Fsus2chimpanzeesFsus2
Noah Fcried, "Close the door cause the Gmrain's pourin'
And Fwe just can't wait for Cno uniFcorn!"
F C F
The Fark started moving, it Gmdrifted with the tides
Them Cunicorns looked up from the Frocks and they criedFsus2
And the Fwaters came down and sort of Gmfloated them away
And that's why ya never seen a unicorn to this very day
You'll see Fgreen alligators and Gmlong necked geese
Some Chumpty backed camels and some Fsus2chimpanzeesFsus2
Some Fcats and rats elephants, but Gmsure as you're born
You're Fnever gonna see no Gmu Cni FcornCF
