| Jonah was a man who got a word from the Lord | |
| ‽Go and preach the Gospel to the sinful land" | |
| But he got on a ship and he tried to get away | |
| And he ran into a storm in the middle of the sea | |
| Now the Lord, He made the waves just roll so high | |
| The ship begin to sink and they all begin to cry | |
| So they pulled ole Jonah out of the hole | |
| And they jumped him in the water just to lighten up the load | |
| Now the Lord made a whale, long and wide | |
| Lord, Lord waddnat a fish | |
| And he swallowed up Jonah, hair and hide | |
| Lord, Lord waddnat a fish | |
| Mmm, Lord, mmm, Lord | |
| Now Jonah started to pray in the belly of the whale | |
| Lord, Lord waddnat a fish | |
| He repented of his sins like a man in jail | |
| Lord, Lord waddnat a fish | |
| Mmm, Lord, mmm, Lord | |
| Now Jonah must o' been a bad man, he must o' been a sinner | |
| Lord, Lord waddnat a fish | |
| 'Cos when the whale got him down, he didn't like his dinner | |
| Lord, Lord waddnat a fish | |
| Mmm, Lord, mmm, Lord | |
| Well, he swum around the ocean, sick as he could be | |
| Lord, Lord waddnat a fish | |
| And after three days, whoops, he had to set him free | |
| Lord, Lord waddnat a fish, mmm | |
| So the whale spit Jonah out onto dry land | |
| Lord, Lord waddnat a fish | |
| And he went on to preaching like a righteous man | |
| Lord, Lord waddnat a fish | |
| Then the people quit their sins when they heard him in the town | |
| Lord, Lord waddnat a fish | |
| So when you hear the call, don't you turn the Gospel down | |
| Lord, Lord waddnat a fish, mmm |
