The song is based on the story of King David and ba-shebah. he saw her bathing and fell in love with her, had her husband killed so that he could marry her. the bit about her cutting his hair i think has been mixed up with the story of samson. but their you go most songs have bits in that dont make sence just to make it ryme.
