If I Had My Way I’d Tear This Building Down lyrics

Well, if I had my way
I had a, a wicked mind
If I had a, oh Lord, I'd tear this building down!

Well
Delilah was a woman fine an' fair
Her pleasant looks, her coal black hair
Delilah gained old Samson's mind
I first saw the woman that looked so fine
Where went Timothy, I can't tell
A daughter of Timothy, a-pleased him well
A'Samson told his father, I'm goin'
Ahh!
(Help) me Lord

If I had my way
Well, if a had a, a wicked way
If I had a, ah Lord, I'd tear this building down!

Well!
Samson's mother replied to him
Can't you find a woman of your kind and kin?
Samson, will you please your mother's mind?
Go and and marry that Philistine

Let me tell you what, old Samson
Well, he roared as the lion, the lion run
Samson was the first man the lion attacked
He caught the lion and got upon his/a
A'written that he killed a man with his
And Sampson had his hand in the lion's jaws
