《Jonah(Single Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] Jonah - Sister Rosetta Tharpe

[00:00:01] Written by：Tharpe

[00:00:07] In the Bible we are told

[00:00:11] Of a prophet who was called

[00:00:14] To a city that was steeped

[00:00:17] An awful sin

[00:00:21] All the people in that place

[00:00:25] Were devoid of saving grace

[00:00:28] And the prophet wased afraid to enter in

[00:00:35] Oh some people don't believe

[00:00:39] That a whale could him receive

[00:00:42] But that was not make my song

[00:00:45] At all untrue

[00:00:49] Why the whales on every side

[00:00:52] With their big mouths open wide

[00:00:56] Just take care my friend

[00:00:58] Or one will swallow you

[00:01:32] Then this prophet

[00:01:33] Forth was sent

[00:01:35] That old nineveh

[00:01:36] Might repent

[00:01:39] But instead of that

[00:01:41] To tarshish

[00:01:42] He set sail

[00:01:46] Oh the winds began to blow

[00:01:50] Overboard did Jonah go

[00:01:53] And he found a Mercy seat

[00:01:56] Inside the whale

[00:02:00] In the cold and briny deeps

[00:02:03] Tears of grief

[00:02:05] Did Jonah weep

[00:02:07] And the big fish

[00:02:09] Threw him out upon the shore

[00:02:14] Then he gladly gladly went his way

[00:02:17] Yeah

[00:02:18] Preached to nineveh

[00:02:19] Nineveh night and day

[00:02:21] And he did not care

[00:02:24] To backslide any more

[00:02:28] Oh thats people don't believe

[00:02:32] That a whale could him receive

[00:02:36] But that does not make my song

[00:02:39] At all untrue

[00:02:43] They are whales

[00:02:44] Whales on every side

[00:02:46] Yeah

[00:02:47] With their big mouths

[00:02:48] Open wide

[00:02:50] Just take care my friends

[00:02:52] Or one will swallow you
