It Ain't Necessarily So

Well it ain't necessarily so
No it ain't necessarily so
The words that you're liable to read in the Bible
Well they ain't necessarily so

Li'l David was small but oh my (so small?)
Li'l David was small but oh my (oh my!)
He fought big Goliath who lay down and dieth
Li'l David he was small but oh my

Woooaaahhh
Wadoo, wadoo
Zim bam baddle-oo, zim bam boddle-ada
Hoodle ah da wa da, ski din do ski din dah dah
Scatty, scatty wah
yeah...

Now Jonah, he lived in de whale (what whale?)
I said Jonah, he lived in dat whale, (oh that whale)
So he made his home in that fish's abdomen
Jonah they say, he lived inside de whale

Well the other one they tell me is that
Li'l Moses was found in a stream
Li'l Moses was found in a stream
He floated on water until that Pharaoh's daughter
Well she says she fished him from that stream

Woooaaahhh
Wadoo, wadoo
Zim bam baddle-oo, zim bam boddle-ada
Hoodle ah da wa da, ski din do ski din dah dah
Scatty, scatty wah
yeah...

Well it ain't necessarily so
No it ain't necessarily so
They tell all the chillun
That the devil he's a villain (he's a villain)
But no! It ain't necessarily so my darling

Now I gotta stop y'all for a sceond because they say
To get into heaven
Don't snap for a seven
Live clean and don't have no faults
Oh I takes thats gospel
But whenever it's possible
With a grain of salt

Methus'lah lived nine hundred years
Methus'lah lived nine hundred years
But who calls that living
When no gal will give in to no man
Oh what's nine hundred years my darling?

So I'm preachin' this sermon to show
That It
Ain't nece-ain't nece
Ain't nece-ain't nece
Ain't necessarily so

Caravan

Night
And stars above that shine so bright
The magic of their fading light
Shines upon our caravan

Sleep
Upon my shoulder as we creep
Across the sand so I may keep
The memory of our caravan

You are so exciting
You are so inviting
Resting in my arms
As I thrill to the magic charms

Of you
beside me here beneath the blue
My dream of love is coming true
Within our desert caravan

Ace of Spades

If you like to gamble, I tell you I'm your man, You win some, lose some, it's all the same to me,

The pleasure is to play, makes no difference what you say,

I don't share your greed, the only card I need is The Ace Of Spades

Playing for the high one, dancing with the devil, Going with the flow, it's all a game to me,

Seven or eleven, snake eyes watching you,

Double up or quit, double stake or split, The Ace Of Spades (the ace of spades)

You know I'm born to lose, and gambling's for fools, But that's the way I like it baby, I don't wanna live forever, And don't forget the joker!

Pushing up the ante, I know you gotta see me, Read 'em and weep, the dead man's hand again,

I see it in your eyes, take one look and die,

The only thing you see, you know it's gonna be, The Ace Of Spades

Caravan (Live)

Night
And stars above that shine so bright
The magic of their fading light
Shines upon our caravan

Sleep
Upon my shoulder as we creep
Across the sand so I may keep
The memory of our caravan

You are so exciting
You are so inviting
Resting in my arms
As I thrill to the magic charms

Of you
beside me here beneath the blue
My dream of love is coming true
Within our desert caravan
