Oh, are you from across the pond?  It was either Bronski Beat or the
Communards who did an interesting cover of Ain't Necessarily So in the
early '80s - I think both groups were Brits....  It's in more of a
Broadway musical style than country, though.

Anyhow, the chorus of the song, which is the part I was spoofing, goes

It ain't necessarily so.
It ain't necessarily so.
Things that you're liable
To read in the bible
Ain't necessarily so.
