Chubby, Chubby Lyrics by Barry McGuire

Have You Heard

0

Once there was a chubby lamb
His fleece was white as snow
The shepherd hollered
Run, here comes the wolf
But he simply moved too slow

You know he was too fat to fly
Chubby, Chubby, way too heavy
Too fat to fly
Chubby, Chubby, way too heavy
Too fat to fly
Chubby, Chubby, don't ya die
Without you know the reason
Got to know the reason why

Brother Bobby was a Christian
Billy was not
Billy was watchin' close
He saw Bobby gettin' bigger
Puttin' pound on pound
He said, man, that's really gross!

You know you are too fat to fly
Chubby, Chubby, way too heavy
Too fat to fly
Chubby, Chubby, way too heavy
Too fat to fly
Chubby, Chubby, don't ya die
Without you know the reason
Got to know the reason why

Yeah, Jesus gave thе answers for everyonе
Some just cannot hear
Say, they got a mind to think for themselves
But they're fat from ear to ear

You know they're just too fat to fly
Chubby, Chubby, way too heavy
Too fat to fly
Chubby, Chubby, way too heavy
Too fat to fly
Chubby, Chubby, don't ya die
Without you know the reason
Got to know the reason why

Then one day, the Lord came back
To take His people home
He said, spread your wings
And join Me now
No more will you have to roam

Unless you are too fat to fly
Chubby, Chubby, way too heavy
Too fat to fly
Chubby, Chubby, way too heavy
Too fat to fly
Chubby, Chubby, don't ya die
Without you know the reason
Got to know the reason why

Well, Jesus is the answer for everything
Be it overweight spirit or flesh
He'll melt away your pounds if you ask Him to
And you do what He tells you to do

Then you'll not be too fat to fly
Chubby, Chubby, way too heavy
Too fat to fly
Chubby, Chubby, way too heavy
Too fat to fly
Chubby, Chubby, don't ya die
Without you know the reason
Got to know the reason why

Too fat to fly
Chubby, Chubby, way too heavy
Too fat to fly
Chubby, Chubby, way too heavy

Too fat to fly
Chubby, Chubby, way too heavy
Too fat to fly
Chubby, Chubby, way too heavy...
