If I had my way If I had my way If I had my way I would tear this building down
Well, you read about Samson all from his birth He was the strongest man that ever lived on earth One day while Samson was walking along He looked down on the ground he saw an old jaw bone He stretched out his arm, his chains broke like threads When he got to move, ten thousand was dead
He said if I had my way In this wicked world If I had my way I would tear this building down
Now Samson and the lion, they got in attack Samson he crawled up on the lion's back Well, you read about this lion, he killed a man with his paws But Samson got hands around the lion's jaws He ripped that beast till he killed him dead And then the bees made honey in the lion's head
If I had my way In this wicked world If I had my way Then I would tear this building down Tear this building down Tear this building down
Delilah was a woman, she was fine and fair She had good looks in her and coal-black hair Delilah, she gained old Samson's mind When he first saw that woman, oh she looked so fine Delilah, she climbed up on Samson's knee She said, "Tell me where your strength lies if you please" Then she spoke so kind, she talked so fair And then Samson said, "Delilah, don't touch my hair" You can shave my head clean as my hand And then my strength becomes just like a natural man Just like a natural man, just like a natural man
If I had my way In this wicked world If I had my way Then I would tear this building down I would tear this building down I would tear this building down
Temptation broke Samson, he was blinded by lust But his faith gave him strength, yeah and that was enough He rose like a tempest, body and just He buried that darkness in rubble and dust In rubble and dust, in rubble and dust In rubble and dust
He said if I had my way He said if I had my way He said if I had my way I would tear this building down
If I had my way
