i Delilie was a woman, fine an' fair,
A-very pleasant-lookin' an' coal-black hair,
Delilie she gained old Samson's mind
When he saw the woman an' she looked so fine.
Oh, whether he went to Timothy, I can't tell.
But the daughters of Timothy, they treated him well.
He 'plied to his father to go an' see,
"Can't you get this beautiful woman for me?"
Chorus:
He said, "An' if I had-n my way," He says, "An' if I had-n my way," He says, "An' if I had-n my way, I'd tear the buildin' down." He cried, "O Lord, O Lord, O Law Lordy, Lordy, O Lord." He cried, "O Lord, O Lord, O Law Lordy, Lordy, O Lord, yes!" He said, "An' if I had-n my way," He says, "An' if I had-n my way," He says, "An' if I had-n my way, I'd tear the buildin' down."
2 Samson's mother 'plied to him,
"Can't you find a wife among our kin?"
Samson's father said, " 'T grieve your mother's mind
To see you marry a woman of the Philistines."
Read about Samson from his birth,
He was the strongest man that ever lived on earth.
Read away down in ancient times
He killed three thousand Philistines.
3 Stop an' let me tell you what Samson done, He looked at the lion, an' the lion run 5
It's written that the lion had killed men with his paw,
But Samson had his hand in the lion's jaw.
He kilt the lion, the lion is dead $
Bees made honey in the lion's head.
Samson was a man, large in size.
Overpowered a man and plucked out his eyes.
