Сюжет из Библии, книги Ионы
http://allbible.info/bible/sinodal/jon/1/

Jonah was a man who got a word from the Lord
"Go and preach the Gospel to the sinful land"
But he got on a ship and he tried to get away
And he ran into a storm in the middle of the sea

Now the Lord, He made the waves just roll so high
The ship begin to sink and they all begin to cry
So they pulled ole Jonah out of the hole
And they jumped him in the water just to lighten up the load

Now the Lord made a whale, long and wide
And he swallowed up Jonah, hair and hide

Now Jonah started to pray in the belly of the whale
He repented of his sins like a man in jail

Now Jonah must o’ been a bad man, he must o’ been a sinner
'Cause when the whale got him down, he didn’t like his dinner

Well he swum around the ocean, sick as he could be
And after three days, whoops! he had to set him free

So the whale spit Jonah out onto dry land
And went on to preaching like a righteous man

Then the people quit their sins when they heard him the town
So when you hear the call, don’t you turn the Gospel down
