Jonah and the Whale

Jonah and the Whale - Louis Armstrong (路易斯·阿姆斯特朗)

Jonah was a man who got a word from the Lord

Go and preach the Gospel to the sinful land

But he got on a ship and he tried to get away

And he ran into a storm in the middle of the sea

Now the Lord he made the waves just roll so high

The ship begin to sink and they all begin to cry

So they pulled ole Jonah out of the hole

And they jumped him in the

Water just to lighten up the load

Now the Lord made a whale long and wide

Lord Lord waddnat a fish

And he swallowed up Jonah hair and hide

Lord Lord waddnat a fish

Mmm Lord mmm Lord

Now Jonah started to pray in the belly of the whale

Lord Lord waddnat a fish

He repented of his sins like a man in jail

Lord Lord waddnat a fish

Mmm Lord mmm Lord

Now Jonah must o' been a bad man

He must o' been a sinner

Lord Lord waddnat a fish

Cos when the whale got him down

He didn't like his dinner

Lord Lord waddnat a fish

Mmm Lord mmm Lord

Well he swum around the ocean

Sick as he could be

Lord Lord waddnat a fish

And after three days whoops

He had to set him free

Lord Lord waddnat a fish mmm

So the whale spit Jonah out onto dry land

Lord Lord waddnat a fish

And he went on to preaching like a righteous man

Lord Lord waddnat a fish

Then the people quit their sins when

They heard him into town

Lord Lord waddnat a fish

So when you hear the call don't you

Turn the Gospel down

Lord Lord waddnat a fish mmm
