Lyrics:
Well, if I had my way I had-a, a wicked mind If I had-a, ah Lord, tear this building down Weh-ell! Delilah was a woman fine an' fair Her pleasant looks-a, her coal black hair Delilah gained old Samson's mind A-first saw the woman that looked so fine A-well went Timnathy, I can't tell A daughter of Timnathy, a-pleased him well A-Samson told his father, 'I'm goin a-a-a' (Help) me Lord If I had my way Well, if a had-a, a wicked world If I had-a, ah Lord, tear this building down Weh-ell! Samson's mother replied to him 'Can't you find a woman of your kind and kin?' 'Samson, will you please your mother's mind?' Go'd and married that-a Philistine Let me tell you what, old Samson Well, he roared at the lion, the lion run Samson was the first man the lion attach He caught the lion and got upon his 'ack A-written that he killed a man with his And Sampson had his hand in the lion's jaws If I had my way If I had-a, a wicked world If I had-a, ah Lord, tear this building down "Well, your riddle please, a-tell it to me" "A-how an eater became forth meat?" "Well, your riddle please, a-tell it to me" "A-how strong of it came forth sweet? Deliah, got his army after him Well, the bees made-a honey in the lion hair Well, if I had my way Well, if I had-a, a wicked world If I had-a, ah Lord, tear this building down Sewed me tow knot, an' formed a plot Not many days 'fore Samson was caught A-bind this hands whilst a-walkin' along A-looked on the ground and found a lil' jawbone He moved his arm ropes, a-pop like thread Dropped those threads free, three thousand were dead Lord, If I had my way Well, if I had a, a wicked world If I had a, ah Lord, tear this building down Weh-ell! Samson's trick though they never found out "Till they began to wonder about" A-'till his wife sat up upon his knee "A-tell me where your strength lie, if you please?" Samson's wife she a-talked so fair Told his wife cut off-a his hair "Shave my head, clean as your hand" "Till I become a natural man!" Lord, If I had my way Well, if I had a, a wicked world If I had a, ah Lord, tear this building down.
