THE OLD ARK'S A-MOVERIN'
Traditional Negro Spiritual

  CHO:
  
  F
  The old ark's a-moverin'
    C7         F
  A-moverin' a-moverin'
  
  The old ark's a-moverin'
            C7     F
  By the Spirit of God
  
  (repeat)
  
  
  F
  How many days the water fall
  C7             F
  Forty days and nights in all
  
  Old ark she reel, old ark she rock
              C7          F
  Old ark she landed on a mountain top
  
  
  Ham, Shem, and Japeth was settin' one day
  Talkin' on the upper deck and lookin' at the bay
  While they was disputin' 'bout this and that
  The ark done bump on Ararat
  
  See that sister dressed so fine
  She ain't got religion on her mind
  See that brother dressed so gay
  Devil's gonna come and carry him away
