The Lyrics
pretty straight foward, highlights the story of david and goliath
There was a young Israeli boy
And a giant Palestinian man
He taunted the, Israeli army
Because they were circumcised
Oh, oh, oh them Jews were circumcised
The youngest son of Jesse
Went to battle this giant man
The inspirational help of God
Conquered all who didn’t care
Oh, oh, oh those who didn’t believe
He believes in God and Noah
So David Volunteered
Persuaded King Saul to let him fight
Against this monolithic pier
Wore a simple robe carried a slingshot
With his pocket full of stones,
Oh, Goliath he approached
Well he picked up a rock
And he used his slingshot well
Conquered all his fears, and sent that heathen straight to hell
He never gave up on all his dreams
And smashed all obstacles down
Picked up his sword, was inspirational
For the church and people now
Oh, oh, oh David and Goliath
Oh, oh, oh David and Goliath
Oh yeah
Yes it is
Yeah well David killed Goliath
Yes he did
(Fade out)
And a giant Palestinian man
He taunted the, Israeli army
Because they were circumcised
Oh, oh, oh them Jews were circumcised
The youngest son of Jesse
Went to battle this giant man
The inspirational help of God
Conquered all who didn’t care
Oh, oh, oh those who didn’t believe
He believes in God and Noah
So David Volunteered
Persuaded King Saul to let him fight
Against this monolithic pier
Wore a simple robe carried a slingshot
With his pocket full of stones,
Oh, Goliath he approached
Well he picked up a rock
And he used his slingshot well
Conquered all his fears, and sent that heathen straight to hell
He never gave up on all his dreams
And smashed all obstacles down
Picked up his sword, was inspirational
For the church and people now
Oh, oh, oh David and Goliath
Oh, oh, oh David and Goliath
Oh yeah
Yes it is
Yeah well David killed Goliath
Yes he did
(Fade out)

David and Goliath is my fave Bible stories. It's amazing how brave David is to fight such a giant! Shooting Goliath 555 rocks with a slingshot!
