NEIL SEDAKA lyrics - Run Samson Run. In the bible 1000 years BC. 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 (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
