[chorus]
That's what the good book says
That's what the good book says

And nothin's gonna hurt you
If your livin' it right
That's what the good book says


A-jonus ya know
Was lower than low

A-headin' down deeper than he wanted to go
A-jonus was stuck inside of a whale
Just like a prison

And no bail

He wouldn't give up

He wouldn't say die
Had someone a-watchin him
From way up high


He called on the lord
To help him get free

The whale spit right outa the sea

[repeat chorus]


David was small
No bigger than me

He fought old goliath
Who was eight-foot three
Goliath was strong

Goliath was brave
And everbody muttered
Poor dave


His chances were slim
The future was dim

But he had a little extra goin' for him
With only a rock
And the help of the lord

He laid goliath like a smorgabord

[repeat chorus]


Sampson was tough
As twenty marines

When he met the army of the philistines
A thousand of them
The battles were led

And everyone figured
(uh oh! )
Sam's dead


A thousand to one
Why that's murder to see

But sam never ever thought of meetin' defeat
With faith in the lord
A-well he wasn't alone

He clobbered?
With just a hunk of bone


(that's what the good book says)
That's what the good book says
(that's what the good book says)

That's what the good book says

You can always find

When? is in doubt
Right?
Well it's gotta come out


[repeat chorus]
