Samson will you please your mother's mind[00:00:57]
Go'd and married that a philistine[00:01:00]
Let me tell you what old Samson[00:01:03]
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[00:01:14]
And Sampson had his hand in the lion's jaws[00:01:17]
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[00:01:35]
Well your riddle please a tell it to me[00:01:37]
A how strong of it came forth sweet[00:01:40]
Delia got his army after him[00:01:43]
Well the bees made a honey in the lion hair[00:01:46]
Well if I had my way[00:01:49]
Well if I had a a wicked world[00:01:52]
If I had a ah lord tear this building down[00:01:56]
Sewed me tow knot an' formed a plot[00:02:01]
Not many days 'fore Samson was caught[00:02:04]
A bind this hands whilst a walkin' along[00:02:07]
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[00:02:25]
Weh ell[00:02:30]
Samson's trick though they never found out[00:02:32]
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[00:02:40]
Samson's wife she a talked so fair[00:02:43]
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]
Lord 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[00:03:01]
