Samson and Delilah (Live at Raceway Park in Englishtown, New Jersey, September 3, 1977) The Grateful Dead

[Instrumental]

[Intro]
If I had my way
I would tear this whole building down

[Verse 1]
Delilah was a woman, she was fine and fair
Oh yes, she had good looks, God knows, and coal black hair
Delilah she gained old Samson's mind
When first he saw this woman, she looked so fine
Delilah, she sat down on old Samson's knee
Said "Tell me where your strength lies, if you please"
And she spoke so kind, she talked so fair
Samson said, "Delilah, you cut off my hair
You can shave my head, clean as my hand
My strength come 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 evеr has lived on Earth
One day while Samson was walking along
Lookеd down on the ground, he saw an old jaw bone
And he stretched out his arm, God knows, chains broke like threads
When he got to move, ten thousand was dead
