Samson and Delilah's Beauty Shop Songtext
von Steve Forbert and The Rough Squirrels

Well, I said Samson and Delilah′s Beauty Shop
Hey there, baby, let your long hair drop
Samson and Delilah's Beauty Shop
Hey there, baby, let your long hair drop

I′m a-famin' in the baby with the best salon
It's a-passin′ over liquor stores and quarter of a mile beyond
If you can′t be waddlin' and curlin′ and a-twirlin' your hair
And you can be believin′ you'll be
Happy when you′re leavin' from a virgin

Check it out, Samson and Delilah's Beauty Shop
Hey there, baby, let your long hair drop
Samson and Delilah′s Beauty Shop
Hey there, baby, let your long hair drop

If you got a call to create a way to cave you got a date alright
As at least I guarantee they′re bound to look your best tonight
Try to make your perfect surely they will never leave you in no lurch
Yes, and it is guaranteed you're looking mighty fine for the church


Hey, what it is, it′s Samson and Delilah's Beauty Shop
Come on, baby, let your long hair drop
Samson and Delilah′s Beauty Shop
Yeah there, baby, let your long hair drop

Mrs. Hayside's place is something really hard to quit
She won′t show her face in anybody else's place again, no
And by the door of Mrs. Crowe a double reaper stepped inside
And now you know it isn't so even if you get the grey hair dyed

Right down to Samson and Delilah′s Beauty Shop
Hey there, baby, let your long hair drop
Samson and Delilah′s Beauty Shop
Hey there, baby, let your daddy drop

Sittin' and a-contemplatin′ waitin' on your hair to dry
Readin′ magazines about the people in the public eye, baby
Johnny Carson, Richard Burton, Jackie O and Lady Di
Larry Hagman, Sally Field and Dolly Parton, me, oh my, it's all good


It′s Samson and Delilah's Beauty Shop
Hey there, baby, let your long hair drop
Samson and Delilah's Beauty Shop
Hey there, baby, let your long hair drop
Samson and Delilah′s Beauty Shop
Come on, baby, baby, keep on falling
Samson and Delilah′s Beauty Shop
Hey there, baby, let your long hair

Woo! A-one two three four drop!
Feel good!
