The Whale Has Swallowed Me Lyrics

Janiva Magness The Whale Has Swallowed Me

They say the whale swallowed Jonah
Out in the deep blue sea.
Sometime I gets that old funny feeling
That same old whale has swallowed me.

If I live,
If I don't get killed,
I do believe one day
I will finally cross over this hill.

The sun rise in the east,
Goes down in the west.
I do believe one day
Ev'ry living creature will get some rest.

I b'lieve the whale lies sick.
That's why I have the blues.
I do believe one day
He will finally turn me loose.
