	Story Behind the Song Recorded live in Minneapolis, Minnesota, this song tells a story of a man preparing for the arrival of God by drinking everything he can get his hands on. Lyrics I drank chamomile tea the first day All I did was barf I drank blackjack whiskey the second day A friendly dog said, "Arf!" I drank turpentine on the third day They thought it was a suicide I drank moo juice on the fourth day And there ain't no place left to hide from The Ark of the Covenant's comin' your way The Ark of the Covenant A of the C it's comin' to town for you and me I drank seven oceans on the fifth day And that cut me down to size I drank the seven seas on the sixth day Then I turned a hundred and five I drank grain alcohol on the seventh day By then I felt a little bit sick I drank snake oil on the eighth day And that fixed me up real quick The Ark of the Covenant's comin' your way The Ark of the Covenant The A of the C it's comin' to town for you and me Finally I stopped drinkin' I felt like I was full I swore I'd never drink again but probably I will Don't even ask me about the ninth day I won't say what I know If you want to read about the tenth day I can tell you just where to go I can barely remember the eleventh day My race was almost lost I thought maybe, maybe by the twelfth day I had gotten my point across about The Ark of the Covenant's comin' your way The Ark of the Covenant A of the C it's comin' to town for you and me The Ark of the Covenant's comin' your way The Ark of the Covenant A of the C it's comin' to town for you and me Really what I've been drinkin' depends upon my mood And lately, lately baby, I haven't felt too good Oh but the Ark of the Covenant is comin' your way The Ark of the Covenant The A of the C it's comin' to town for you and me One more time The Ark of the Covenant's comin' your way The Ark of the Covenant The A of the C it's comin' to town for you and me
