The Wooden Soldiers - Delilah Lyrics

Hey you lovely lady
Can you come out and play?
I've been working hard and
I am calling it a day
I could really go
For some tender loving care
You look like the kinda girl
That likes to share

I know the cost
And I'm willing to pay
It's gonna burn either way

Delilah
Delilah
Delilah was her name

Meet me in an hour
At the house of the blues
I can be your suitor
We can take ourselves a trip
Somewhere just beyond
That border in the sky
Somewhere we can find
Some paradise

Don't bother knocking
Just come on in
Write your name on my skin

Delilah
Delilah
Delilah was her name
Delilah
Delilah
Delilah was her name

She was on the corner
Down at Alabaster road
Waiting on a man
To take her in
When I took her in
It was clear that she'd been sent
Cause I could hear
The fat lady singing out

Delilah
Delilah
Delilah was her name
