George Gershwin
Sam and Delilah
[KATE]
Delilah was a floozy
She never gave a damn
Delilah wasn't choosy
Till she fell
For a swell
Buckaroo whose name was Sam

Delilah got in action
Delilah did her kootch
She gave him satisfaction
And he fell
'Neath her spell
With the aid of love and hooch

But one day so they tell us
His true wife he did crave
Delilah she got jealous
And she tracked him
And hacked him
And dug for Sam a grave

It's always that way with passion
So cowboy, learn to behave
Or else you're liable to cash in
With no tombstone on your grave
[KATE AND COWBOYS]
Delilah, oh Delilah
She's no babe in the wood
Run, cowboy, run a mile-ah
If you love
That kind of
Woman she'll do you no good

[KATE]
The sheriff got Delilah
They swung her from a tree
The records are on file-ah
It's distressin'
But the lesson
Is an easy one to see

It's always that way with passion
So, cowboy, learn to behave
Or else you're liable to cash in
With no tombstone on your grave

[KATE AND COWBOYS]
Delilah, oh Delilah
She's no babe in the wood
Run, cowboy, run a mile-ah
If you love
That kind of
Woman she'll do you no good
