Well if I had my way[00:00:01]

I had-a a wicked mind[00:00:05]

If I had-a ah Lord tear this building down[00:00:08]

Weh-ell [00:00:13]

Delilah was a woman fine an' fair[00:00:15]

Her pleasant looks-a her coal black hair[00:00:18]

Delilah gained old Samson's mind[00:00:21]

A-first saw the woman that looked so fine[00:00:24]

A-well went Timnathy I can't tell[00:00:27]

A daughter of Timnathy a-pleased him well[00:00:30]

A-Samson told his father 'I'm going[00:00:33]

Help me Lord[00:00:35]

If I had my way[00:00:38]

Well if i had-a a wicked world[00:00:40]

If I had-a ah Lord tear this building down[00:00:44]

Weh-ell [00:00:49]

Samson's mother replied to him[00:00:50]

'Can't you find a woman of your kind and kin '[00:00:53]

'Samson will you please your mother's mind '[00:00:56]

Go'd and married that-a Philistine[00:00:59]

Let me tell you what old Samson[00:01:02]

Well he roared at the lion the lion run[00:01:05]

Samson was the first man the lion attach[00:01:08]

He caught the lion and got upon his 'ack[00:01:11]

A-written that he killed a man with his[00:01:13]

And Sampson had his hand in the lion's jaws[00:01:16]

If I had my way[00:01:20]

If I had-a a wicked world[00:01:23]

If I had-a ah Lord tear this building down[00:01:26]

'Well your riddle please a-tell it to me'[00:01:32]

'A-how an eater became forth meat '[00:01:34]

'Well your riddle please a-tell it to me'[00:01:37]

'A-how strong of it came forth sweet [00:01:40]

Deliah got his army after him[00:01:43]

Well the bees made-a honey in the lion hair[00:01:45]

Well if I had my way[00:01:48]

Well if I had-a a wicked world[00:01:51]

If I had-a ah Lord tear this building down[00:01:55]

Sewed me tow knot an' formed a plot[00:02:00]

Not many days 'fore Samson was caught[00:02:03]

A-bind this hands whilst a-walkin' along[00:02:06]

A-looked on the ground and found a lil' jawbone[00:02:09]

He moved his arm ropes a-pop like thread[00:02:12]

Dropped those threads free three thousand were dead[00:02:15]

Lord If I had my way[00:02:18]

Well if I had a a wicked world[00:02:21]

If I had a ah Lord tear this building down[00:02:24]

Weh-ell [00:02:29]

Samson's trick though they never found out[00:02:31]

'Till they began to wonder about[00:02:34]

A-'till his wife sat up upon his knee[00:02:37]

'A-tell me where your strength lie if you please '[00:02:39]

Samson's wife she a-talked so fair[00:02:42]

Told his wife cut off-a his hair[00:02:45]

'Shave my head clean as your hand[00:02:48]

'Till I become a natural man '[00:02:51]

If I had my way[00:02:54]

Well if I had a a wicked world[00:02:57]

If I had a ah Lord tear this building down[00:03:00]
