It Ain't Me
Maureen Lyrics

It ain't necessarily so
Just because something is written in the Bible doesn't mean it's true.

The t'ings dat yo' li'ble to read in de Bible
The things that you're likely to read in the Bible

Li'l David was small, but oh my
David was small, but he still defeated Goliath

He fought Big Goliath, who lay down an' dieth
David defeated Goliath who died from his wounds

Wadoo, zim bam boddle-oo Hoodle ah da wa da Scatty wah Oh yeah
Nonsensical gibberish

Oh Jonah, he lived in de whale
Jonah lived in a whale after being eaten by one

Fo' he made his home in Dat fish's abdomen Oh Jonah, he lived in de whale
Jonah lived in the whale's stomach

Li'l Moses was found in a stream
Moses was found as a baby in a stream

He floated on water Till Ol' Pharaoh's daughter She fished him, she said, from dat stream
Moses was found floating in the stream by Pharaoh's daughter who took him as her own

Well, it ain't necessarily so
Just because something is said doesn't mean it's true

Dey tells all you chillun De debble's a villun
People say the devil is bad, especially to children

But it ain't necessarily so
But that's not necessarily true

To get into Hebben Don' snap for a sebben Live clean ! Don' have no fault
If you want to get into heaven, live cleanly and without sin

Oh, I takes dat gospel Whenever it's pos'ble But wid a grain of salt
I follow the gospel as much as possible, but I take it with a grain of salt

Methus'lah lived nine hundred years
Methuselah supposedly lived for 900 years

But who calls dat livin When no gal will give in To no man what's nine hundred years
But is that really living when no woman will have a 900 year old man?

I'm preachin' dis sermon to show It ain't nece-ain't nece Ain't nece-ain't nece Ain't necessarily...so
I'm preaching this sermon to show that just because something is said or written doesn't mean that it's necessarily true
