Lyrics

It ain't necessarily so It ain't necessarily so The things that you're liable to read in the Bible It ain't necessarily so Little David was small but oh, my Little David was small but oh, my He fought the Goliath who lay down and died Little David was small but oh, my Yes, Jonah he lived in the whale Oh, Jonah he lived in the whale But he made his home in that fish's abdomen Ooh, Jonah he lived in the whale Little Moses was found in the stream Little Moses was found in the stream He floated on water till old Pharoah's daughter She fished him, she says, from that stream They tell all the children The devil's a villian But it ain't necessarily so To get into heaven don't snap for a seven Live clean, don't have no fault Oh, I'd take that gospel whenever it's possible But with a grain of salt Methus'lah lived nine hundred years Methus'lah lived nine hundred years But who calls that livin' when no gal will give in To no man, what's nine hundred years? Now I'm preachin' this sermon to show It ain't necessarily, ain't necessarily, ain't necessarily So
