If I don't read my soul be lost Nobody's fault but mine Nobody's fault-a but mine Bible, taught me how to read Mother, she taught me how to read If I don't read, my soul be lost

It ain't necessarily so The things that you're liable To read in the Bible, It ain't necessarily so. To get into heaven, don't snap for a seven Live clean forget your faults But with a grain of salt Jonah he lived in a whale Ain't necessarily so

Nobody's fault but mine Tryin' to raise my soul to light I'll raise my soul to the light Have a bible in my home Taught me how to read Bible and my soul tonight. Tryin' to raise my soul to the light Got a bible in my home Ah, nobody's fault but mine
