[Intro]

[Verse]
And the round old Emfox, stepped up to make his Dspeech
His ship was on the Bmrocks, and rescue out of Emreach
Spotlit he Amstood, said what he thought he Dshould
Half the crowd did Emlaugh, though there was no Djoke
And soon the other Bmhalf were swallowed up in Emsmoke
A robin on the Amwing, could be heard to Dsing, the strangest thing
[Chorus]
GGrandma, we are DJonah
Rolling aClong in the teeth of a Dwhale
[Verse]
Then the plane did Emland, for some it did not Dcrash
From it emerged a Bmman, in trainers and mousEmtache
Down he laid his Amload, upon the heated Droad
Then the road did Empart, and the tar did Dmelt
He loosened up his Bmheart, he tightened up his Embelt
Like a piece of Amstring, then he began to Dsing, like a pearly king
[Chorus]
Ahh, GGrandma, we are DJonah
Rolling aClong in the teeth of a Emwhale D
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
Then the scene did Emshift, to a sun kissed Dsea
There was Montgomery BmClift, Jonah, the Whale and Emme
As the sun it Amset, Montgomery placed his Dbet
Then the whale did Emyawn, and fell asleep in Dfour
From dusk till Bmdawn, you should have heard him Emsnore
From Tierra-Del-FueAmgo, to the Alaskan Dsnows, there she blows
[Chorus]
GGrandma, we are DJonah
Rolling aClong in the teeth of a Dwhale
[Chorus]
My dear old GGrandma, we are DJonah
Rolling aClong in the teeth of a Dwhale
