The Backroom Boys)
After Samson spoke his mind
Delilah called the Philistines
They paid her silver for her sins
While Samson slept a man came in
And cut off all his hair
`The Philistines are here
Wakey, wakey, rise and shine
The enemy draws near
Wakey, wakey, rise and shine`
And thus Delilah mocked him
He didn`t realise
His strength had gone
His captors came
And gouged out both his eyes
But Samson`s soul remained
To rue the love which bore him ill
In Gaza he was chained
And put in jail to work the mill
For love a man was lost from God
Whom God had ceased to know
His hair, the token, had been cut
But soon that hair would grow
