Her pleasant looks-a, her coal hair
Delilah gained old mind

A daughter of Timnathy, him well
A-Samson told his father, 'I'm a-a-a'

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

Weh-ell!

'Till they began to wonder
A-'till his wife sat up upon his
'A-tell me where your lie, if you please?'

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

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