Lyrics

Delilah's Power

Samson and Delilah

They made it known

That a man is weak

For a woman strong

Use your power like Delilah

Even Samson couldn't deny Delilah's power

You know god made man

All muscles and strength

But what he gave to woman

No man can resist

Use your power like Delilah

Even Samson couldn't deny Delilah's power

Yeah I'm talkin' about Delilah's power

I said Delilah's power

Delilah's power

Delilah's power

Use your powers like Delilah

Even Samson couldn't deny Delilah's power

King of the jungle

The lion he roars

But the lioness calmly

Soothes his soul

Use your powers like Delilah

Even Samson couldn't deny Delilah's power

Delilah's power

I said Delilah's power...

Think you can do without a woman

Well I don't think you can

'Cause in every land

There's a woman for every man

Use your powers like Delilah

Even Samson couldn't deny Delilah's power

Delilah's power

I said Delilah's power...
