If I Had My Way

If I Had My Way - Peter, Paul & Mary (彼得、保羅和瑪麗)

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
