text: You read about Sampson, and you read about his birth
  He was the strongest man that ever lived on Earth
  One day Sampson he was walking alone
  He looked down on the ground and he saw an old jawbone
  And he lifted up that jawbone and he swung it over his head
  And when he got to moving ten thousand was dead
  If I had my way
  If I had my way in this wicked world
  If I had my way I would tear this building down
  Sampson and the lion got in attack
  And ol Sampson he crawled up on the lions back
  You can read about the lion - he killed a man with his paw
  And ol Sampson he had his hands around that lions jaw
  He ripped that beast til the lion was dead
  And the bees made honey in the lions head
  If I had my way
  If I had my way in this wicked world
  If I had my way I would tear this building down
  Delilah she was a woman, she was fine and fair
  She had lovely looks, God knows, and coal black hair
  Delilah she climbed up on Sampsons knee
  She said Tell me where your strength lies, if you please
  And she talked so fine, and she talked so fair
  And ol Sampson said Delilah, cut off my hair
  Shave my head clean as your hand
  And my strength will be like a natural man.
  If I had my way
  If I had my way in this wicked world
  If I had my way I would tear this building down
  If I had my way
  If I had my way
  If I had my way in this wicked world
  If I had my way I would tear this building down, yeah!
