Who lay down and dieth -

Li'l' David was small, but oh my!

To get into Hebbben

Don't snap fo' a sebben -

Live clean! Don' have no fault!

Oh, I takes dat gospel

Whenever it's pos'ple -



But wid a grain of salt!



Methus'lah lived nine hundred years,



All:

Methus'lah lived nine hundred years,



Sportin' Life:

But who calls dat livin'

When no gal'll give in

To no man what's nine hundred years?



I'm preachin' dis sermon to show

It ain't nessa, ain't nessa,

Ain't nessa, ain't nessa -



All:

It ain't necessarily so!
