I'll bet this is the original of the song we've been (mostly) discussing. The sheet music can be seen at the Indiana University "IN Harmony" web site. (Click for a PDF.)


BIBLE STORIES.
Words by John Lee Clarke. Music by Al. Johns.
New York: M. Witmark & Sons, ©1904

First line of first verse: Old Noah was a sailor man, the greatest one afloat.
First line of first chorus: Old Folks, children, ev'rybody come.

On cover:
"May Irwin's Song Successes
As sung by her
In Geo. V. Hobart's new comedy
Mrs. Black Is Back"

I don't have time to transcribe it right now (I'm away from home and using a library computer) but I'll do it in a few days, if no one else does.
