It Ain't Necessarily So

It Ain't Necessarily So - Ella Fitzgerald (埃拉·菲茨傑拉德)/Louis Armstrong (路易斯·阿姆斯特郎)

Ella Fitzgerald：

It ain't necessarily so

It ain't necessarily so

De t'ings dat yo li'ble

To read in de 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

Louis Armstrong：

Yeah

Jonah he lived in de whale

Oh Jonah he lived in de whale

Fo' he made his home in

Dat fish's abdomen

Oh Jonah he lived in de whale

Little Moses was found in a stream

Little Moses was found in a stream

He floated on water

'Till Ole' Pharaoh's daughter

She fished him she says from dat stream

Ella Fitzgerald：

Yeah

It ain't necessarily so

It ain't necessarily so

They tell all you children

But debble's a villain

But tain necessarily so

To get into Hebbben

Don't snap fo' a sebben

Live clean Don have no fault

Oh I takes dat gospel

Whenever it's possiple

But wid a grain of salt

Methus'lah lived nine hundred years

Methus'lah lived nine hundred years

But who calls dat livin'

When no gal'll give in

To no man what's nine hundred years

Louis Armstrong：

I'm preachin' dis sermon to show

Ella Fitzgerald：

It ain't necessarily

Louis Armstrong：

Ain't necessarily

Both：

It ain't necessarily

So
