It Aint Nescessarily So Lyrics
It Ain't Necessarily So - Lena Horne
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 lay down and dieth
Little David was small but oh my
Oh Jonah
He lived in the whale
Oh Jonah
He lived in the whale
For he made his home in that fishes abdomen
Oh Jonah
He lived in the whale
Little Moses was found in a stream
Little Moses was found in a stream
He floated on water to old Pharaoh's daughter
She fished him she says from that stream
It ain't necessarily so
It ain't necessarily so
They tell all you chillun de debble's a villain
But it ain't necessarily so
To get into Hebben don't snap for a sebben
Live clean don't have no fault
Oh I takes that gospel whenever it's possible
Yeah but with a grain of salt
Methus'lah lived nine hundred years
Methus'lah lived nine hundred years
But who calls that living
When no gal will give in
To no man what's nine hundred years
I'm preaching this sermon to show
It ain't nece ain't nece
Ain't nece ain't nece
Ain't necessarily so
Oh no it ain't so
