If I Had My Way
You read about sampson, you read about his birth
He was 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 lifted up that jaw-bone and he swung it over his head,
And when he got to moving ten thousand was dead.
If I had my way,
If I had my way in this wicked world,
If I had my way I would tear this building down.
Sampson and the lion got in attack
Sampson he crawled 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
And he ripped that beast till the lion was dead
And the bees made honey in the lion's head.
If I had my way,
If I had my way in this wicked world,
If I had my way I would tear this building down.
Delilah was a woman, she was fine and fair
She had lovely looks, God knows, and cold black hair
Delilah she climbed up on sampson's knee
And said tell me where your strength lies, if you please
She talked so fine, she talked so fair,
Sampson said delilah, cut off my hair,
Shave my head just as clean as your hand
And my strength will be like a natural man.
If I had my way,
If I had my way in this wicked world,
If I had my way I would tear this building down.
If I had my way,
If I had my way in this wicked world,
If I had my way I would tear this building down.
Si yo tuviera mi camino
Leíste sobre Sansón, leíste sobre su nacimiento
Él fue el hombre más fuerte que jamás haya vivido en la tierra.
Un día el viejo Sansón caminaba solo
Miró hacia abajo en el suelo y vio una mandíbula vieja.
Levantó esa mandíbula y la balanceó sobre su cabeza,
Y cuando empezó a moverse, diez mil estaban muertos.
Si yo tuviera mi camino,
Si yo tuviera mi camino en este mundo malvado,
Si yo tuviera mi camino derribaría este edificio.
Sansón y el león se enfrentaron
Sansón se arrastró sobre la espalda del león
Leíste sobre este león - mató a un hombre con su garra
Sansón puso sus manos alrededor de la mandíbula del león
Y desgarró a la bestia hasta que el león estuvo muerto
Y las abejas hicieron miel en la cabeza del león.
Si yo tuviera mi camino,
Si yo tuviera mi camino en este mundo malvado,
Si yo tuviera mi camino derribaría este edificio.
Dalila era una mujer, era hermosa y justa
Tenía una apariencia encantadora, Dios sabe, y cabello negro frío
Dalila se subió al regazo de Sansón
Y dijo dime dónde está tu fuerza, por favor
Ella hablaba tan bien, hablaba tan justamente,
Sansón dijo Dalila, corta mi cabello,
Rasura mi cabeza tan limpia como tu mano
Y mi fuerza será como la de un hombre natural.
Si yo tuviera mi camino,
Si yo tuviera mi camino en este mundo malvado,
Si yo tuviera mi camino derribaría este edificio.
Si yo tuviera mi camino,
Si yo tuviera mi camino en este mundo malvado,
Si yo tuviera mi camino derribaría este edificio.
