Lyrics: (Verse 1) I built the ark because He asked me I didn't ask Him why I was the kind of man who follows I was the alibi And when the rain began to hammer On the roof that I had made I didn't weep for what was drowning I was righteous, I was saved (Verse 2) Forty days I heard them dying Forty nights I heard the sea I never spoke a word of protest I never said, "What about me?"
