Colm Wilkinson it ain t necessarily so from porgy and bess

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 laid down and dieth
Little David was small, but oh my
(It ain't necessarily so)
It ain't necessarily so
The things that you're liable, to read in that Bible
It ain't necessarily so
Jonah, he lived in a whale
(Jonah, he lived in a whale)
He made his home in that fish's ab-do-men.
Jonah, he lived in a whale
The things that you're liable, to read in that Bible
It ain't necessarily so
(To get into heaven don't snap for a second, live clean, don't have no faults. Oh, I'll take that gospel whenever is possible, but with a grain of salt)
Methuselah lived 900 years
Methuselah lived 900 years
But who calls that living, when no gal will give in to no man of 900 years
I'm preaching this sermon to show
(It ain't nessa, ain't nessa, ain't nessa, ain't nessa)
Ain't necessarily so!
