Hey Delilah, you got the power over me
All bound up in your shackles and chains
And I ain't even tryna get free
She brings me the medicine
Disposes of the evidence
She don't fall apart on the witness stand
Brother, I would say she's heaven sent
She got a wild streak a mile long
Helps me sing a dirty song
You know I do what she wants
And not a thing that she don't
And I hope I never do her no wrong
Hey Delilah, you got the power over me
All bound up in your shackles and chains
And I ain't even tryna get free
Hey Delilah, I tell you what you gotta believe
Hey, hey, hey, Delilah
She's all right with me (all right)

She sold me out a time or two
I begged her, "Honey, how could you?"
She got a hand on her hip
And a finger to her lip
Said, "Hush, baby, that'll do"
She burnin' like a blue flame
Lot's of boys callin' her name
I run 'em off with an old jawbone
They know better than to come around my baby again
I said hey Delilah, you got the power over me
All bound up in your shackles and chains
And I ain't even tryna get free
Hey Delilah, I tell you what you gotta believe
Hey, hey, hey, Delilah
She's all right with me
I'll buy anything she's got to say
Man, that woman she really can give 'em hell, all right
