If I had my way, I would tear this old building down.
Well Delilah was a woman, she was fine and fair,
She had good looks, God knows, and coal black hair,
Delilah she gained old Samson's mind.
When first he saw this woman, you know he couldn't believe his mind.
Delilah she climbed up on Samson's knee,
Said tell me where your strength lies if you please.
She spoke so kind and she talked so fair,
Well Samson said, Delilah cut off my hair.
You can shave my head, clean as my hand
And my strength will become as natural as any old man.
If I had my way, if I had my way, if I had my way,
I would tear this old building down.
You read about Samson, all from his works,
He was the strongest man that ever had lived on earth.
One day when Samson was walking along,
Looked down on the ground, he saw an old jawbone.
He stretched out his arm, God knows, chains broke like thread,
When he got to moving, ten thousand was dead.
If I had my way, if I had my way, if I had my way,
I would tear this old building down.
Now Samson and the lion, they got in a tack,
Samson he crawled up on the lion's back.
You read about this lion, he killed a man with his paws,
But Samson got his hands around that lion's jaws.
He ripped the beast till he killed him 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 old building down.
Found at: http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~mleone/dead-lyrics.htmlI was one or two just lying in my crib
Shaking that rattle like I always did
Susie strolled in, that little girl next door
Next thing you know we were rolling on the floor
Mama came a runnin' to her liittle pride and joy
Said Bless his little heart He's an exciteable boy
High school redneck rebel to the bone
Running eighty miles an hour in a thirty mile zone
Steal a little kiss--Skip a little school
Break another heart, bend another rule
Cop tells the principle He's only making noise
Cut the kid some slack, he's an exciteable boy
(Chorus)
I've been a renegade
since the day I was born
I get a little carried away
Never meant to do nobody no harm
I got a rock it, I can't stop it
I ain't about to change
Parking with my darling fogging up the glass
Slipping cross' the truck seat trying to make a pass
My baby said stop we gotta take it slow
But you know me, I'm always raring to go
It's the way I am, I don't have no choice
What can I say, I'm an exciteable boy
(Repeat Chorus)
(tag)
What can I say, I'm an Exciteable Boy
What can I say, I'm an Exciteable Boy
Ah you know I just can't help myself
It's just the way I am
