[Verse 1]

He's not like Isaiah but he's holy

Does not have Isaiah's way with words

He's not Jeremiah or Ezekiel my friends

He's not really famous like Daniel and them

Does not have a great big book

But the things that he said all came true

[Chorus]

Obadiah

Wasn't a talky kinda guy

No, no, no

Obadiah

Wasn't a talky kinda guy

No, no, no

[Verse 2]

The prophets had words that they told the -- world

The longest of them was Jeremiah -- wooo

The prophet Isaiah had more chapters than he

But he double spaced them or something it seems

Along with those great big books

There's a dinky one-chapter book, too

[Chorus]

Obadiah

Wasn't a talky kinda guy

No, no, no

Obadiah

Wasn't a talky kinda guy

No, no, no

[Verse 3]

The prophets had words that they told us

A lot of them wasted little time -- whooo

Zeph'niah, Joel, and Nahum had three chapters each

Habakkuk the same, Haggai one less than these

But topping the names of books

With the thinnest of pages is who?

[Chorus]

Obadiah

Wasn't a talky kinda guy

No, no, no

Obadiah

Wasn't a talky kinda guy

Wasn't a talky kinda guy

[Chorus]

Obadiah

Wasn't a talky kinda guy

Wasn't a talky

Wasn't a talky kinda guy

Obadiah

Wasn't a talky kinda guy

[Outro]

Wasn't a talky kinda guy

Wasn't a talky kinda guy

Wasn't a talky kinda guy

No, no, no...
