A long time ago when the earth was green

And there was more kinds of animals than you've ever seen

They'd run around free while the earth was being born

But the loveliest of them all was the Unicorn

There were green alligators and long necked geese

Some humpty-back camels and some chimpanzees

Some cats and rats and elephants but sure as you're born

The loveliest of all was the Unicorn

Now God seen some sinning and it gave Him pain

And He says Stand back I'm going to make it rain

He says Hey brother Noah I'll tell you what to do

Build me a floating zoo And take some of them

Green alligators and long necked geese

Some humpty-back camels and some chimpanzees

Some cats and rats and elephants but sure as you're born

Don't you forget My Unicorn

Old Noah was there to answer the call

He finished up making the ark just as the rain started fallin

He marched in the animals two by two

And he called out as they went through Hey Lord I got your

Green alligators and long necked geese

Some humpy-back camels and some chimpanzees

Some cats and rats and elephants but Lord I'm so forlorn

I just can't see no Unicorn

Then Noah looked out through the driving rain

Them Unicorns were hiding playing silly games

Kicking and splashing while the rain was pouring

Oh them silly Unicorns

There were green alligators and long necked geese

Some humpy-back camels and some chimpanzees

Noah cried Close the door cause the rain is pouring

And we just can't wait for no Unicorn

The ark started movin it drifted with the tide

Them Unicorns looked up from the rocks and they cried

And the waters came down and sort of floated them away

And that's why you'll never seen a Unicorn to this very day

You'll see green alligators and long necked geese

Some humpy-back camels and some chimpanzees

Some cats and rats and elephants but sure as you're born

You're never gonna see no Unicorn
