Samson was a comfortable racehorse
Samson was an easy ride
Samson was born to be a racehorse

Samson gave us a pony and died
And one day Samson he kicked to the left
Samson he kicked to the right

Samson he kicked out the door
Samson he kicked out his light
He was a thoroughbred

Who knew his time had come
So when the boy pulled the trigger he was ready to go
Here come Delila

She was screaming at the sun
But it's alright
He said it's alright with him

It's alright, it was alright with him
Delila, fell in love in the summertime
But Samson had too much pride

So she loved him
From a distance
She called him black electra-glide

And one day Samson, he turned to the left
Samson he turned to the right
Something was moving through the grass

Something spooky and tight
It was a rattlesnake striking out from the bushes
And Samson was a hero only just in time

Said Delila
I want to be with you forever
If it's alright

And it was alright with him
And it was alright
It was alright with him

They called him Samson
Because his mane was long
And he was carved out of muscle

He was big and strong
We'll build a statue
So he can be with us always

And it's alright
I know it's alright with him
It's alright

I know it's alright with him
Samson grew old in the winter
But Samson still lived for the racing days

But there were rumors
Flying round the racetrack
They were putting him out to graze

So one day Samson he kicked to the left
Samson he kicked to the right
Samson wouldn't wait for the doctor

Samson couldn't live through the night
He was a thoroughbred
Who knew his time had come

And a bullet would be quicker than a broken heart
And Delila, she was carrying his son
So it's alright

It was alright with him
I know it's alright
It's alright with him

He said it's alright
It's alright with him
