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