George Gershwin
It Ain’t Necessary So
It ain't necessarily so, it ain't necessarily so
The things that you liable to read in the Bible
It ain't necessarily so
Little David was small but, oh my
David was small but, oh my
He fought Big Goliath who just lay down and died
Little David might have been small but, oh my
Jonah, he lived in the whale
Jonah, he lived in the whale
For he made his home in that fish's abdomen
Jonah, he lived in the whale
Little Moses was found in a stream
Little Moses was found in a stream
He floated on water
'Til Ol' Pharaoh's daughter
Shе fished him, she said, from that stream
To gеt into heaven
Don't snap for a seven
Live clean, don't have no fault
Oh, I take that gospel
Whenever it's pos'ble
But with a little grain of salt
Methuselah lived nine hundred years
Methuselah lived nine hundred years
But who calls that living when no gal will give in to no man
What's nine hundred years
It ain't necessarily
It ain't necessarily
It ain't necessarily
It ain't necessarily
