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:
Rebecca don't 'llow 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 and mild
Maybe she will settle down and marry after a while
Chorus:
Rebecca don't 'llow me fool around with you
You are so tantalizing you just can't be true
Beautiful Delilah, bathin' in the sun
An audience of seventeen, and notice not a one
Local Casanova who wouldn't be outdone
Let her steal his heart away and break it just for fun
Chorus:
Rebecca don't 'llow me fool around with you
You are so tantalizing you just can't be true
