Samson Lyrics - Singles - Godley And Creme

Samson was a comfortable racehorse 

Samson was an easy ride 

Samson was born to be a racehorse 

Samson gave us a pony and died 

And one day Samson he kicked to the left 

Samson he kicked to the right 

Samson he kicked out the door 

Samson he kicked out his light 

He was a thoroughbred 

Who knew his time had come 

So when the boy pulled the trigger he was ready to go 

Here come Delila 

She was screaming at the sun 

But it's alright 

He said it's alright with him 

It's alright, it was alright with him 

Delila, fell in love in the summertime 

But Samson had too much pride 

So she loved him 

From a distance 

She called him black electra-glide 

And one day Samson, he turned to the left 

Samson he turned to the right 

Something was moving through the grass 

Something spooky and tight 

It was a rattlesnake striking out from the bushes 

And Samson was a hero only just in time 

Said Delila 

I want to be with you forever 

If it's alright 

And it was alright with him 

And it was alright 

It was alright with him 

They called him Samson 

Because his mane was long 

And he was carved out of muscle 

He was big and strong 

We'll build a statue 

So he can be with us always 

And it's alright 

I know it's alright with him 

It's alright 

I know it's alright with him 

Samson grew old in the winter 

But Samson still lived for the racing days 

But there were rumors 

Flying round the racetrack 

They were putting him out to graze 

So one day Samson he kicked to the left 

Samson he kicked to the right 

Samson wouldn't wait for the doctor 

Samson couldn't live through the night 

He was a thoroughbred 

Who knew his time had come 

And a bullet would be quicker than a broken heart 

And Delila, she was carrying his son 

So it's alright 

It was alright with him 

I know it's alright 

It's alright with him 

He said it's alright 

It's alright with him
