Brian Wilson – It Ain't Necessarily So lyrics
It ain't necessarily so
It ain't necessarily so
The things that your 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 lay down an' dieth
David was small, but oh my

To get into Heaven
Don't snap for a sebben!
Live clean! Don' have no fault!
Oh, I takes that gospel
Whenever it's pos'ble,
With a grain of salt.

Oh Jonah, he lived in a whale,
Oh Jonah, he lived in a whale,
he made his home in
That fish's abdomen.
Oh Jonah, he lived in a whale.

Moses was found in a stream.
Little Moses was found in a stream.
He floated on water
Till Ol' Pharaoh's daughter,
She fished him, she said, from that stream.

To get into Heaven
Don't snap for a sebben!
Live clean! Don' have no fault!
Oh, I takes that gospel
Whenever it's pos'ble,
With a grain of salt.

It ain't necessarily so
Well it ain't necessarily so
They tells all you children
The devil's a villain,
But it ain't necessarily so!
