He Took It Like a Man Lyrics

Samson was in love with Delilah,
Adam a-was a fool about Eve
Eve started messin' with that old apple tree,
that caused old Adam to grieve
But, he took it like a man
(he took it like a man)
Yes, he took it like a man
(he took it like a man)
Oh! now when thunder pounded down,
he got slammed on the ground
He laid there and he took it like a man
(he took it like a man)

Now you remember old John the Baptist
(yeah!, yeah!)
He was a prophet in the days of old
(yeah!, yeah!)
But when the axe fell down
Johnny didn't even frown
He just laid there, he took it like a man
(he took it like a man)
Oh! he took it like a man
(he took it like a man)
Woo, he took it like a man
(he took it like a man)
Now when the axe fell down
Johnny didn't even frown
He just laid there, he took it like a man
(he took it like a man)

David was the King of Jerusalem
Had the army in the palm of his hand
But they took a man's life
so he could have his wife
And then he had to get a-cuttin' down
Well, he took it like a man
(he took it like a man)
Woo, he took it like a man
(he took it like a man)
When the thunder pounded down
he got slammed on the ground
He laid there he took it like a man
(he took it like a man)

Oh! He took it like a man, woo,
(he took it like a man)
Then he took it like a man
(he took it like a man)
When the thunder pounded down
he got slammed on the ground
He laid here he took it like a man,
(he took it like a ma-a-a-an)
Woo-oo-oo-oo-oo
