[Verse 1]
It ain't necessarily so
It ain't necessarily so
The things that ya liable to read in the Bible
It ain't necessarily so
Now lil David was small, but oh my
Yes, David was small, but oh my
He fought big Goliath
Who laid, laid down and dieth, yes, David was small, but oh my
[Verse 2]
You ever heard about Jonah
He lived in a whale
You ever heard about Jonah, he lived, lived in a whale
And he made his home in that fish's abdomen
Yes, Jonah, he lived in a whale
[Verse 3]
To get into Heaven, don't snap for a seven
Live clean, and don't have no fault
And take me, I takes that gospel whenever it's possible
But with a little grain of salt
[Verse 4]
Methus'lah lived nine hundred years
Methus'lah lived nine, nine hundred years
But tell me, who, who calls that livin'
When no gal is givin' to no man
What's nine hundred years?
[Verse 5]
That's why that I said that it ain't, it ain't necessarily
It ain't, no, necessarily, it ain't, it ain't necessarily so
Ain't necessarily so
Ain't necessarily so
Ain't necessarily, ain't necessarily, ain't necessarily
