David And Goliath Lyrics

Apologetix David And Goliath

Parody of "Paperback Writer" by The Beatles
(1 Samuel 17, 2 Samuel 21:15-22, Ruth 4:17)


David & Goliath! David & Goliath! David & Goliath!
You've heard about 'em - it's a famous scene
Between the Israelites and the Philistines
The faced each other in the valley of Elah,
But the battle fought was a one-on-one with
David & Goliath, David & Goliath
From the Philistine army came a burly man
He was named Goliath, so you understand
This one was wearing just a coat of mail
But it was made of bronze and weighed 200 lbs.
David & Goliath, David & Goliath
As he challenged Israel to take the field
He was waiting 40 days and wouldn't yield
David came along, but he was just a child
With a sling-a-shot he went a-runnin' to him.
David & Goliath, David & Goliath
David threw the rock, and you could hear the sound
'Cause it hit the Philistine and knocked him down
Then he struck Goliath, and cut off his head
And he saved the day, 'cause the Lord was with him.
David & Goliath, David & Goliath
