|
Beautiful Delilah, sweet as apple pie
|
Always gets a second look from fellas passin' by
|
Every time you see her she's with a different guy
|
Beautiful Delilah, that's the reason why
|
|
CHORUS:
|
The better don't allow me fool around with you
|
You are so tantalizing you just can't be true
|
|
Beautiful Delilah, dressed in the latest style
|
Swingin' like a pendulum, walkin' down the aisle
|
Deep romantic eyes, speak so low in miles
|
Maybe she will settle down and marry after a while
|
|
(chorus)
|
|
(instrumental)
|
|
Beautiful Delilah, bathin' in the sun
|
An audience of 17, and notice not a one
|
Local Casanova who wouldn't be outdone
|
Let her steal his heart away, break it just for fun
|
|
(chorus)
|
