I'm Working On A Building

The Carter Family

Compositor: A.P. Carter

I'm a workin on building
I'm a workin on building
I'm a workin on building
For my lord for my lord

It's a holy ghost building
It's a holy ghost building
It's a holy ghost building
For my lord for my lord

If I was a liar I tell you what I would do
I'd quit my lyin and work on a building too

If I was drunkard I tell you what I would do
I'd quit my drinkin and work on a building too

If I was a preacher I tell you what I would do
I would keep on preachin and work on a building too
