He Took It Like a Man

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, yeah-yeah)
He was a prophet in the days of old (yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah)
But when the axe fell down, Johnny didn't even frown
He laid there, he took it like a...

Oh! He took it like a man (he took it like a man)
Whoa, 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 (yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah)
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)
Whoa, 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...

Oh! He took it like a man, whoa (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
