Testo Samson and Delilah - Grateful Dead
Testo della canzone Samson and Delilah (Grateful Dead), tratta dall'album Terrapin Station
If I had my way, I would tear this whole building down
Delilah was a woman, she was fine and fair
She had good looks, and coal-black hair
Delilah, she gained old Samson's mind
When first he saw this woman, she looked so fine
Delilah, she climbed up on Samson's knee
Said tell me where your strength lies, if you please
Then she spoke so kind, she talked so fair
That Samson said, "Delilah, you cut off my hair
You can shave my head, as clean as my hand
My strength will come as natural as any other man"
If I had my way
If I had my way
If I had my way
I would tear this whole building down
You read about Samson, all from his birth
He was the strongest man ever had lived on earth
One day while Samson was walking along
Looked down on the ground, he saw an old jaw bone
Then he stretched out his arm, and his chains broke like threads
And when he got to move, ten thousand was dead
If I had my way
If I had my way
If I had my way
I would tear this whole building down
Now Samson and the lion, they got in attack
And Samson, he cralwed up on the lion's back
You read about this lion, he killed a man with his paw
Samson got his hands up round that lion's jaw
And he ripped that beast wide open, killed it dead
And the bees made honey in the lion's head
If I had my way
If I had my way
If I had my way
I would tear this whole building down
If I had my way
If I had my way
If I had my way
I would tear this whole building down
I would tear this whole building down
