It Ain’t Necessarily So

It ain't necessarily so
It ain't necessarily so
The things that your liable
To read in the Bible
It ain't necessarily so

David was small, but oh my
Little David was small, but oh my
He fought Big Goliath
Who lay down an' dieth
David was small, but oh my

To get into Heaven
Don't snap for a sebben!
Live clean! Don' have no fault!
Oh, I takes that gospel
Whenever it's pos'ble
With a grain of salt

Oh Jonah, he lived in a whale
Oh Jonah, he lived in a whale
He made his home in
That fish's abdomen
Oh Jonah, he lived in a whale

Moses was found in a stream
Little Moses was found in a stream
He floated on water
Till Ol' Pharaoh's daughter
She fished him, she said, from that stream

To get into Heaven
Don't snap for a sebben!
Live clean! Don' have no fault!
Oh, I takes that gospel
Whenever it's pos'ble
With a grain of salt

It ain't necessarily so
Well it ain't necessarily so
They tells all you children
The devil's a villain
But it ain't necessarily so!
