D is for Delilah and Her Scissors

Delilah and Her Scissors

Judges 16:1-31

Chorus:

Hey there Delilah

What’s that you’re holding in your hand?

Hey there Delilah

What’s that you’re holding in your hand? 

Hey there Delilah

Are you going to cut the hair of another man?

Hey there Delilah

Is that scissors you are holding in your hand?

Delilah we all know the story

It has been told all over the valley

We know what you did to Samson

His hair was all of his glory

You took a little help from Sally

Now you have something to ransom

You didn’t know that he loved you

And now he is dead and gone,

because those columns fell on his head

Things would be different if you knew

That his love for you was so strong

You’ll never find him in your bed

Chorus:

Hey there Delilah

What’s that you’re holding in your hand?

Hey there Delilah

What’s that you’re holding in your hand? 

Hey there Delilah

Are you going to cut the hair of another man?

Hey there Delilah

Is that scissors you are holding in your hand?

(Repeat Chorus)

Hey there Delilah

What’s that you’re holding in your hand?

Hey there Delilah

What’s that you’re holding in your hand? 

Hey there Delilah

Are you going to cut the hair of another man?

Hey there Delilah

Is that scissors you are holding in your hand?
