Tony Stewart - Out Of The Strong lyrics

As was the custom in Philistine

Samson provided the food and the wine

Thirty companions, a must for the time,

To guest the wedding banquet

"Now I have a riddle," Samson began

"Tell me the answer if you can

Make your replies within the week

To qualify for prizes"

"But if you cannot answer me

The prizes I am naming

Thirty sets of linen garments

Shall be mine from you

Not yours from me"

"Out of the eater something to eat

Out of the strong something sweet"

For three days the people laboured in vain

They could not find the answer

But those deceitful Philistines

Making threats of violence

Pressurised his wife and her family

'til she coaxed the answer out of him

(What is stronger than a lion ?)

(What is sweeter than honey ?)

Out of the eater something to eat (What is stronger than a lion ?)

Out of the strong something sweet (What is sweeter than honey ?)

Out of the eater (What is stronger [If you'd not ploughed

something to eat than a lion ?) with my heifer]

Out of the strong (What is sweeter [You would not have

something sweet than honey ?) found the answer]

Out of the eater (What is stronger [If you'd not ploughed

something to eat than a lion ?) with my heifer]

Out of the strong (What is sweeter [You would not have

something sweet than honey ?) found the answer
