THE ROLLING STONES
"Beautiful Delilah"

Beautiful Delilah, sweet as apple pie
Always gets a second look from fellas passing by
Every time you see her she's with a different guy
Beautiful Delilah, that's the reason why

My mama don't allow me fool around all night, fool around all night
Fool around all night, fool around all night
Fool around all night, fool around all night
Well, you are so tantalizing, you just can't be true

Now, beautiful Delilah dressed in the latest style
Swinging like a pendulum, walking down the aisle
Deep romantic eyes, speak so low in miles
Maybe she will settle down and marry after a while

My mama don't allow me fool around all night, fool around all night
Fool around all night, fool around all night
Fool around all night, fool around all night
Well, you are so tantalizing, you just can't be true

Beautiful Delilah, bathing 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

My mama don't allow me fool around all night, fool around all night
Fool around all night, fool around all night
Fool around all night, fool around all night
Well, you are so tantalizing, you just can't be true
