[Instrumental]

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

[Instrumental]

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

[Verse 1]
Delilah was a woman, she was fine and fair
Yes, she had good looks, God knows, and coal black hair
Delilah she gained old Samson's mind
When first he saw this woman, oh, 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, talked so fair
Samson said, "Delilah you cut off my hair
You can shave my head, clean as my hand
My strength become 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 strongеst man ever has lived on еarth
One day while Samson was walking along
Looked down on the ground he saw an old jaw bone
He stretched out his arm and his chains broke like threads
When he got to move, ten thousand was dead

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

[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
Now, Samson and the lion, they got in attack
Samson he crawled up on the lion's back
And you read about this lion, he killed a man with his paws
Samson got his hands up around that lion's jaws
He ripped that beast, God knows, he killed him dead
And the bees made honey in the lion's head
[Chorus]
If I had my way
If I had my way
If I had my way
I would tear this whole building down (Great God Almighty, talk)

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
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

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