Samson and Delilah

Lyrics

If I had my way
 If I had my way
 If I had my way
 I would tear this old building down
 Well Delilah, she was a woman fine and fair
 She had good looks, God knows and coal black hair
 Delilah, she came to Samson's mind
 The first he saw this woman that looked so fine
 Delilah, she set down on Samson's knee
 Said tell me where your strength lies if you please
 She spoke so kind, God knows, she talked so fair
 'til Samson said 'Delilah, you can cut off my hair
 You can shave my head, clean as my hand
 And my strength 'come as natural as any a man'
 If I had my way
 If I had my way
 In this wicked world
 If I had my way
 I would tear this old building down
 Talk, Yeah
 Yeah, Talk to me
 Yeah, Yeah, talk to me
 Yeah, what happened then?
 If I had my way
 If I had my way
 If I had my way
 I would tear this old building down
 Yeah you read about old Samson, told from his birth
 He was the strongest man that ever had lived on Earth
 So one day while Samson was-a-walkin' along
 He looked on the ground and saw an old jawbone
 He stretched out his arm, God knows, it broke like flint
 When he got to movin' ten-thousand was dead, Mmm
 If I had my way
 If I had my way in this wicked world
 If I had my way
 I would tear this old building down
 Well old Samson and the lion got attacked
 Samson he jumped up on the lion's back
 So you read about this lion had killed a man with his paws
 But Samson got his hand in the lion's jaws
 He rid that beast until he killed him dead
 And the bees made honey in the lion's head
 Good God!
 If I had my way
 If I had my way
 If I had my way
 I would tear this old building down
 If I had my way
 If I had my way in this wicked world
 If I had my way
 I would tear this old building down
 Good God
