If I Had My Way

If I had my way

If I had my way

If I had my way

I would tear this building down

Tear this building down

You read about Sampson and from his birth

The strongest man that ever lived on Earth

One day old Sampson was walking alone

He looked down on the ground and he saw an old jaw-bone

He swung it over his head, swung it over his head

When he start moving ten thousand was dead

If I had my way

If I had my way

If I had my way

I would tear this building down

Tear this building down

Sampson and the lion got in attack

Sampson joined up on the lion's back

You read about this lion, he killed a man with his paw

Sampson he got his hands around the lion's jaw

He ripped that beast till the lion was dead

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 building down

Tear this building down

Delilah was a woman so fine and fair

She had a lovely good looks and a coal black hair

Delilah came down on Samson's mind

First he saw a woman of the Philistines

She set down on Samson's knees

Tell me where your strength lies if you please

She spoke so kind, talked so fair

Samson told "Delilah cut off my hair,

Shave my head, clean as your hand

And my strength will be like a natural man."

Took old Samson by surprise

They picked up a stick and then they punched out his eyes

Backing down to the judgment hall

Chained him to the stone cold wall

They left him there ‘til his hair turn brown

Strength to tear that building down

If I had my way

If I had my way

If I had my way

I would tear this building down

Tear this building down

Tear this building down

Tear this building down

Tear this building down...
