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

David was small but oh my

Little David was small but oh my

He fought big Goliath who lay down and dieth

David was small but oh my

To get into Heaven don' snap for a sabbath

Live clean don' have no fault

I take that gospel whenever it's possible

With a grain of salt

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 'til ole Pharaoh's daughter

She fished him she said from that stream

To get into Heaven don' snap for a sabbath

Live clean don' have no fault

Oh I take that gospel whenever it's possible

But with a grain of salt

It ain't necessarily so

Well it ain't necessarily so

They tell all you children the devil's a villain

It ain't necessarily so
