Samson and Delilah (Live at Copps Coliseum, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, March 22, 1990) The Grateful Dead
[Instrumental]
[Verse 1]
Delilah was a woman, she was fine and fair
And ooh, she had good looks, God knows, and coal black hair
Delilah she gained old Samson's mind
When first he saw this woman, Lord, couldn't believe his mind
Delilah she climbed up on Samson's knee
Said "Tell me where your strength lies, if you please"
She spoke so kind, God knows, talked so fair
So Samson said, "Delilah, you cut off my hair
You can shave my head, clean as my hand
My strength come as natural as any old man"
[Chorus]
If I had my way
If I had my way
If I had my way
I would tear this whole building down
[Verse 2]
You read about Samson, all from his works
He was the strongest man that ever has lived on Earth
One day while Samson was walking along
Looked down on the ground he saw an old jaw bone
Stretched out his arm, God knows, chains broke like threads, yeah
When he got to move, ten thousand was dead
