It ain´t necessarily so
It ain´t necessarily so
The t´ings dat yo´ li´ble
To read in de Bible,
It ain´t necessarily so.
Li´l David was small, but oh my!
Li´l David was small, but oh my!
He fought Big Goliath
Who lay down an´ dieth!
Li´l David was small, but oh my!
Wadoo, zim bam boddle-oo,
Hoodle ah da wa da,
Scatty wah!
Oh yeah!...
Oh Jonah, he lived in de whale,
Oh Jonah, he lived in de whale,
Fo´ he made his home in
Dat fish´s abdomen.
Oh Jonah, he lived in de whale.
Li´l Moses was found in a stream.
Li´l Moses was found in a stream.
He floated on water
Till Ol´ Pharaoh´s daughter,
She fished him, she said, from dat stream.
Wadoo...
Well, it ain´t necessarily so
Well, it ain´t necessarily so
Dey tells all you chillun
De debble´s a villun,
But it ain´t necessarily so!
To get into Hebben
Don´ snap for a sebben!
Live clean! Don´ have no fault!
Oh, I takes dat gospel
Whenever it´s pos´ble,
But wid a grain of salt.
Methus´lah lived nine hundred years,
Methus´lah lived nine hundred years,
But who calls dat livin´
When no gal will give in
To no man what´s nine hundred years?
I´m preachin´ dis sermon to show,
It ain´t nece-ain´t nece
Ain´t nece-ain´t nece
Ain´t necessarily... so!
It ain´t necessarily so
The t´ings dat yo´ li´ble
To read in de Bible,
It ain´t necessarily so.
