Laurie, Hugh - The Whale Has Swallowed Me Lyrics
They say the Whale swallowed Jonah
Out in the deep blue sea
Sometimes I get that feeling
That same old Whale has swallowed me
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 do believe one day
I will crawl out of here

Laurie, Hugh The Whale Has Swallowed Me Comments
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 crawl out of here
Hugh Laurie was raised Protestant so it isn't surprising he reflects some of those themes in his music.
This song is originally by JB Lenoir.
Yeah, he just picked songs by musicians he respected. Said it himself.

Great Song Thanks For Sharing
Love the album!
You the MAN!!!!!!
Hugh, this is the second song that refers to some Judeo -Christian theme on this album. Makes one think what you are reflecting on at this time in your life. Great album by the way.
Its an old blues. You are assuming too much
