In the Bible, 1000 years B.C.   There's a story of ancient history   'Bout a fella who was strong as he could be   'Til he met a cheatin' gal who brought him tragedy      Oh, run Samson run, Delilah's on her way   Run Samson run, you ain't got time to stay   Run Samson run, on your mark you better start   I'd sooner trust a hungry lion than a gal with a cheatin' heart      She was a demon, a devil in disguise   He was taken by the angel in her eyes   That lady barber was very well equipped   You can bet your bottom dollar, he was gonna get clipped      Oh, run Samson run, Delilah's on her way   Run Samson run, you ain't got time to stay   Run Samson run, on your mark you better start   I'd sooner trust a hungry lion than a gal with a cheatin' heart      Oh, Delilah made Sammy's life a sin   And he perished when the roof fell in   There's a moral so listen to me pal   There's a little of Delilah in each and every gal      So run Samson run, Delilah's on her way   Run Samson run, you ain't got time to stay   Run Samson run, on your mark you better start   I'd sooner trust a hungry lion than a gal with a cheatin' heart   I'd sooner trust a hungry lion than a gal with a cheatin' heart
