To build him an arky, arky

To build him an arky, arky
Build it out of gopher barky, barky
Children of the Lord.

He called for the animals,
They came in by twosie, twosies
Called for the animals,
They came in by twosie, twosies
Elephants and kangaroosie, roosies
Children of the Lord.

It rained and it poured
For forty long daysie, daysies
Rained and it poured
For forty long daysie, daysies
Almost drove those animals crazy, crazies,
Children of the Lord.

Then Noah he sent out
He sent out a dovey dovey
Noah he sent out
He sent out a dovey dovey
Dovey said “There’s clear skies abovey-bovey”
Children of the Lord.

The sun came out and
Dried up the landy landy
Sun came out and
It dried up the landy landy
Everything was fine and dandy, dandy
Children of the Lord.

The animals they came off
They came off by three-sies three-sies
Animals they came off
They came off by three-sies three-sies
Grizzly bears and chimpanzee-sies zee-sies
Children of the Lord
[Chorus]

Verse 8:
That is the end of,
The end of my story, story
That is the end of,
The end of my story, story
Everything is hunky dory, dory
Children of the Lord.

    Thank you for publishing these words. I am thankful to find words that I have forgotten for some of the older children’s songs. I teach Children’s Church for ages 3 through 1st grade. This is very useful.

    I learned this song at Bible Camp as a kid and always got a kick out of it. I’ve been looking for the lyrics and guitar chords for quite some time but hadn’t searched for “Arky Arky” song until now. Thanks so much for having it!

    I learned this song on a mission trip while in Nursing school. I proceeded to teach it to my nieces, nephews, and finally my own child. However over the years forgot all the words as the now adults are asking for their children. Thank you so much wonderful memories

    Thanks for the guitar chords! I help out with this thing at church for the elementary school kids and it’s always very helpful to have the guitar chords so I can lead them in song. I love the Bible songs that I grew up listening to, and I’m glad that they have requested quite a few of them to teach to the younger kids.
