Text: Hugh Laurie. Let Them Talk. The Whale Has Swallowed Me.

They say the Whale swallowed Jonah
Out in the deep blue sea
Sometimes I get that feeling
That same old Whale has swallowed me

The sun rise in the East
Goes down in the West
Sometimes I get that feeling
Every creature needs some rest

I believe the Whale got sick

That's why I have this blues
I do believe one day
He will finally turn me loose

Now if I live
I pray, I don't get killed
I do believe one day
I will cross out of here
