[Verse]
A Dlong time ago when the Gearth was green
There was mAore kinds of animals than yDou'd ever seen Dsus2
They'd rDun around free while the wGorld was being born
But the lDoveliest of them all was the AuniDcorn
[Chorus]
There was gDreen alligators and lGong necked geese
Some hAumpty backed camels and some cDhimpanzees Dsus2
Some cDats and rats and elephants, but sGure as you're born
The lDoveliest of all was the AuniDcorn.
[Instrumental]
DAD
[Verse]
Now gDod seen some sinning and it gGave him a pain
And he sAays, stand back, "I'm going to mDake it rain!" Dsus2
He says, "HDey, brother Noah I'll tGell you what to do,
BDuild me a fAloating zDoo,"
"and tDsus2ake some of them...."
[Chorus]
GDreen alligators and lGong necked geese,
Some hAumpty backed camels and some cDhimpanzees. Dsus2
Some cDats and rats and elephants, but sGure as you're born.
DDon't you forget my AuniDcorn."
[Instrumental]
DAD
[Verse]
Old NDoah was there to aGnswer the call,
He fAinished up making the ark just as the rDain started pourin' Dsus2
He mDarched in the animals tGwo by two,
And he cDalled out as tAhey went tAhrough,
"Hey lord,"
[Verse]
I gDot your green alligators and lGong necked geese,
Some hAumpty backed camels and some cDhimpanzees, Dsus2
Some cDats and rats and elephants, but lGord, I'm so forlorn,
I jDust can't see no AuniDcorn!"
[Instrumental]
DAD
[Verse]
Then NDoah looked out through the dGriving rain,
Them uAnicorns were hiding, pDlaying silly games. Dsus2
KDicking and splashing while the rGain was pourin'
DOh, them silly AuniDcorns!"
[Chorus]
There were gDreen alligators and lGong necked geese,
Some hAumpty backed camels and some cDhimpanzees. Dsus2
Noah cDried, "Close the door cause the rGain's pourin'
And Dwe just can't wait for those AuniDcorn!"
[Instrumental]
DAD
[Verse]
The aDrk started moving, it dGrifted with the tides,
Them uAnicorns looked up from the rDocks and they cried. Dsus2
And the wDaters came down and sort of fGloated them away,
And that's why ya never seen a unicorn to this very day.
[Chorus]
You'll see gDreen alligators and lGong necked geese,
Some hAumpty backed camels and some cDhimpanzees. Dsus2
Some cDats and rats elephants, but sGure as you're born,
You're never gonna see no u--ni---corn
