Song lyrics downloaded from: https://www.albumsongandlyrics.com ------------------------------------------ Neil Sedaka - Run Samson Run ------------------------------------------ In the Bible one thousand years BC There's a story of ancient history About a fella who was strong as he could be Till 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 (was a demon) A devil in disguise He was taken (he was taken) By the angel in her eyes That lady barber (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 (oh, Delilah) Made Sammy's life a sin And he perished (and he perished) When the roof fell in There's a moral (there's a moral) So listen to me pal There's a little of Delilah In each and every gal Soooo, 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 [From his album 'Neil Sedaka Sings His Greatest Hits']
