One More River to Cross

by Uncle Dave Macon

on On the Trail (2020)

Oh Noah wanted him an ark
One more river to cross
He lashed it up with hickory bark
One more river to cross

One more river, that old river of Jordan
One more river, one more river to cross

Oh the animals went in two by two
One more river to cross
Rhinoceros, the kangaroo
One more river to cross

One more river, that old river of Jordan
One more river, one more river to cross

Well, the animals went in three by three
One more river to cross
The bear, the bug, the bumblebee
One more river to cross

One more river, that old river of Jordan
One more river, one more river to cross

Well, the animals went in six by six
One more river to cross
The baboon laughed, the monkeys prayed
One more river to cross

One more river, that old river of Jordan
One more river, one more river to cross

Oh, the animals went in seven by seven
One more river to cross
Said the ant to the elephant, "Who are you shoving?"
One more river to cross

One more river, that old river of Jordan
One more river, one more river to cross

Oh, the animals know'd just where theys at
One more river to cross
When the old ark bumped on Aaron's raft
One more river to cross

One more river, that old river of Jordan
One more river, one more river to cross

Well, the old ark landed high and dry
One more river to cross
The baboon kissed the cow goodbye
One more river to cross

One more river, that old river of Jordan
One more river, one more river to cross
