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 big Goliath who laid down and died
Little David was small but oh my
Old Jonah, he lived in the whale
Old Jonah, he lived in the whale
For he made his home in that fish's abdomen
Old Jonah, he lived in the whale
Little Moses was found in the stream
Little Moses was found in the stream
He floated on water to old Pharaoh's daughter
She fished him, she said, from that stream
Well, it ain't necessarily so
Well, it ain't necessarily so
They tell you all chillun the devil's a villain
But it ain't necessarily so
To get into heaven don't snap for a seven
Live clean, don't have no faults
Oh, I'll take that gospel whenever it's possible
But with a grain of salt
Methuselah lived nine hundred years
Methuselah lived nine hundred years
But who calls that livin' when no girl will give in
To no man that's nine hundred years
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
