Samson and Delilah

Ethan Johns, Mark Woodward, Tom Jones

If I had my way
If I had my way
If I had my way
I would tear this building down

Well you read about Samson, oh from his birth
He was the strongest man that ever lived on earth
One day while Samson was walking along
He looked down on a the ground and saw an old jaw bone
He stretched out his arms, his chains broke like thread
When he got to moving, ten thousand were dead
He said, "if I had my way in this wicked world
If I had my way, I would tear this building down"

Now Samson and the lion they got an attack
Samson crawled upon the lions back
Well, you read about the lion, he killed a man with his paws
But Samson got his hands around the lion's jaws
He ripped that beast 'til he killed him dead
And then the bees made honey in the lions head
He said, "if I had my way in this wicked world
If I had my way then I would tear this building down
Tear this building down, tear this building down"

Delilah was a woman, she was fine and fair
She had good looks huh, and cold black hair
Delilah she gained old Samson's mind
When he first saw that woman, oh she looked so fine
Delilah she climbed up on Samson's knee
She said, "tell me where your strength lies
If you please"
She spoke so kind, she talked so fair
And then Samson said, "Delilah don't touch my hair
You can shave my head clean as my hand and then my strength becomes
Just like a natural man, just like a natural man
Just like a natural man
If I had my way in this wicked world
If I had my way then I would tear this building down
I would tear this building down, I would tear this building down"

Temptation broke Samson, he was blinded by lust
But his faith gave him strength
Yeah, and that was enough
He rose like a tempest, mighty and just
He buried that darkness in ruble and dust
In ruble and dust
In ruble and dust
In ruble and dust

He said, "if I had my way"
He said, "if I had my way"
He said, "if I had my way
I would tear this building down
If I had my way"
