Samson & Deliliah

If I had my way if I had my way
If I had my way
I would tear this whole building down

Delilah was a woman, she was fine and fair
She had good looks
God knows and coal black hair
Delilah, she gained old Samson's mind
When first he saw this woman
She looked so fine

Delilah she climbed up on Samson's knee
Said tell me where your strength lies
If you please
Then she spoke so kind, she talked so fair
That Samson said, Delilah
You cut off my hair
You can shave my head, cleanse my hand
My strength comes as natural as any other man

If I had my way if I had my way
If I had my way
I would tear this whole building down

You read about Samson, all from his birth
He was the strongest man ever
Had lived on earth
One day while Samson was walking along
Looked down on the ground
He saw an old jaw bone
Then he stretched out his arm and
His chains broke like threads
And when he got to move
Ten thousand were dead

If I had my way if I had my way
If I had my way
I would tear this whole building down

Now Samson and the lion, they got in attack
And Samson, he walked up on the lion's back
You read about this lion
He killed a man with his paw
Samson got hands up round the lion's jaw
He ripped that beast, killed it dead
And the bees made honey in the lion's head

If I had my way if I had my way
If I had my way
I would tear this whole building down
