[Verse 1]
CIn the days of Noah Fjust before the Cflood
When the wicked world had all forgotten G7God
Brother CNoah built a boat which Fabove God's wrath did float
And the G7people saw that they were made of Cmud
[Verse 2]
As the doors stood open Fwith the gang plank Cout
Noah and his family entered with a G7shout
When the Cscoffers stretched their necks
Noah stepped Fout on the deck and said
I'm so G7glad I'm on the inside looking Cout
[Chorus]
Oh I'd rather be on the Finside looking Cout
Than to Fbe upon the outside looking Cin
When the G7rain began to fall Csinners on the Lord did call
But the D7door was shut and night was G7setting in
[Verse 3]
CThen old Noah from the Fwindow looking Cout
Gazed to Fheaven beyond the water Cspout
And he G7said I thank the Lord that CI took Him at his Fword
I'm so G7glad I'm on the inside looking Cout
[Verse 4]
Good old Daniel lived in FBabylon long Cago
And he had the grace to tell the devil G7no
Though Che prayed three times a day
In the Fgood old fashioned way
They G7said he to the lions den must Cgo
[Verse 5]
And lions made him welFcomed to their Chome
For they knew he was nothing but G7backbone
When the Cking looked in and said are you Falive or are you dead
He was G7stirred as Daniel spoke in gentle Ctone
[Chorus]
Oh I'd rather be on the Finside looking Cout
Than to Fbe upon the outside looking Cin
While you G7paced the palace floor CI had naught to do but snore
Jesus D7put a padlock on each lions G7chin
[Verse 6]
Good Cold Daniel from the Finside looking Cout
Don’t Fyou think that he felt good Cenough to shout
Then he G7said long live the king and Cthen started in to Fsing
I'm so G7glad I'm on the inside looking Cout
