Chuck Berry - Beautiful Delilah lyrics

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)
