I'm Glad I'm On The Inside (looking Out) Lyrics - Hank Snow

In the days of Noah just before the flood 

When the wicked had all forgotten God 

Brother Noah, built a boat which above God's wrath did float 

And the people saw that they were made of mud 

As the doors stood open with the gang planked out 

Noah and his family entered with a shout 

When the scufflers stretched their necks 

Noah stepped out on the deck and said 

I'm so glad I'm on the inside looking out 

Oh I'd rather be on the inside looking out 

Than to be upon the outside looking in 

When the rain began to fall sinners on the Lord did call 

But the door was shut and night was settin' in 

Then old Noah from the window looking out 

Gazed to heaven beyond the water spout 

And he said I thank the Lord that I took him at his word 

I'm so glad I'm on the inside looking out 

[ fiddle - guitar ] 

Good old Daniel lived in Babylon long ago 

And he had the grace to tell the devil no 

Though he prayed three times a day in the good old fashioned way 

They said into the lions den must go 

And lions made him welcomed to their home 

For they knew he was nothing but backbone 

When the king looked in and said are you alive or are you dead,he was sirred,as Daniel spoke in gentle tone... 

But I'd rather be on the inside...
