Well, if I had my way
I had-a, a mind
If I had-a, ah Lord, tear this building

Weh-ell!
Delilah was a fine an' fair
Her pleasant looks-a, her coal hair
Delilah gained old Samson's
A-first saw the woman that looked so

went Timnathy, I can't tell
A of Timnathy, a-pleased him well
A-Samson told his father, goin a-a-a'
(Help) me

If I had my way
Well, if a had-a, a wicked
If I had-a, ah Lord, tear this building

Weh-ell!
mother replied to him
'Can't you find a woman of your and kin?'
'Samson, will you your mother's mind?'
Go'd and married Philistine

Let me you what, old Samson

Well, he roared at the lion, the run
was the first man the lion attach
He caught the lion and got upon his
A-written that he a man with his
And had his hand in the lion's jaws

If I had my way
If I had-a, a world
If I had-a, ah Lord, tear this building

'Well, your riddle please, it to me'
'A-how an eater became meat?'
'Well, your please, a-tell it to me'
strong of it came forth sweet?
Deliah, got his after him
Well, the bees honey in the lion hair

Well, if I had my way
Well, if I had-a, a wicked
If I had-a, ah Lord, tear this down

Sewed me tow knot, an' formed a
Not many days 'fore Samson was
A-bind this hands whilst a-walkin'
A-looked on the ground and found a jawbone
He his arm ropes, a-pop like thread
Dropped threads free, three thousand were dead

Lord, If I had my way
Well, if I had a, a world
If I had a, ah Lord, tear building down

Weh-ell!
Samson's though they never found out
'Till they to wonder about
A-'till his wife sat up his knee
'A-tell me your strength lie, if you please?'

Samson's wife she a-talked so
Told his cut off-a his hair
'Shave my head, clean as hand
I become a natural man!'

Lord, If I had my way
Well, if I had a, a wicked
If I had a, ah Lord, tear building down.
