Parody of "Arizona" by Mark Lindsay | |||
Parody Lyrics by Monty R. Ray (A.K.A. The CyberSaddleTramp) | |||
| The word of God came down to Jonah, "head up Nineveh way" "Cry against her and her wicked hoopla, coming up to Me this day" He thought he would flee then leaving God and all the words He wanted him to say And all he could do is hide his face, doesn't seem like he knew how to pray Hey there Jonah, God's near -don't be afraid Hey there Jonah, take His word into their world, hey, hey Hey there Jonah, take up this escapade Hey there Jonah, now won't ya go His way Shake off your pride and your fears, from God you cannot hide Now don't complain if you think you want to be God's saint Hey there Jonah, spread God's holy news Hey there Jonah, you need to go God's way Instrumental interlude Cast in the sea he sank with the undertow while trying to run away The great fish came up and swallowed him whole - where he stayed three long days In that watery grave he prayed "save my life Lord, and I will obey" You need not think it's only a fable, God made it happen that way Hey there Jonah, God's near - don't be afraid Hey there Jonah, go take His word into their world, hey, hey Hey there Jonah, take up this escapade Hey there Jonah, you need to go God's way Come on pray, hey there Jonah, spread God's holy news Hey there Jonah, go take His word into their world, hey heyyyy Hey there Jonah, better give God his dues Hey there Jonah, won't ya go His way | |||
