David was a young blood
David was a stripling
But he looked like the jungle boy
That was talked about by Kipling
Well he looked like a jungle boy
and he sang like a bird
But the fought like the devil
when his temper got stirred
When David was attending
sheep for his pa
Somebody hollered
I think it was his ma
She said Hurry to the field
with this littlebitty sack
I want you to take it
to your Brothers
but hurry right back
Now David took his lunch box
and off he hurried
And there he saw the Israelites
lookin' right worried
When he asked them
what the problem was
They pointed to the prairie
There he saw a sight
to make an elephant scary
Oh there he saw Goliath
champion of Gath
He roared in his anger
howled in his wrath
Oh he was stronger than a lion
He was taller than a tree
Little David had to tiptoe
just to reach up to his knee
Come on said
the giant raging and striding
Bring out your strongmen
from where y' got 'em hiding
Drag out your champions
from under the bunks
I'll feed 'em to the buzzards
the lizards and the skunks
Now David heard him bragging
and said I declare
That giant's got an awful
lot of mouth up there
So he strolled to the brook
and he picked up a pebble
It was smooth as ice
but hard as a devil
He starts out for
the giant dancing on his toes
He was whirling away
with his slingshot
He was singing a song like so goes
Rock of ages cleft for me like so
The giant looks at David
and lets out a laugh
He laughs like a tiger being
sassed by a cat
He laughs like a hyena grins
from ear to ear
BaBaBaBangin' on his armor
with his tenfoot spear
He stars starts out for
David bangin' and aclankin'
He said Come here Junior
I'm gonna give you a spankin'
David took his slingshot
and swung it 'round his head
Out flew that pebble
and the giant dropped
He dropped dead dead
You know little David
made a good shot
