It Ain't Necessarily So Lyrics - Black Coffee - Peggy Lee

It ain't necessarily so 

It ain't necessarily so 

De things dat yo' liable to read in de Bible 

It ain't necessarily so 

Li'l David was small but oh my 

Li'l David was small but oh my 

He fought big Goliath who lay down and dieth 

Li'l David was small but oh my 

Oh Jonah he lived in de whale 

Oh Jonah he lived in de whale 

For he made his home in dat fish's abdomen 

Oh Jonah he lived in de whale

Li'l Moses was found in a stream 

Li'l Moses was found in a stream 

He floated on water 'til ole Pharaoh's daughter 

She fished him she says from that stream 

It ain't necessarily so 

It ain't necessarily so 

Dey tell all you chillun de debble's a villain 

But 'taint necessarily so 

To get into Hebben don' snap for a sebben 

Live clean, don' have no fault 

Oh I takes dat gospel whenever it's pos'ble 

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
