House Of Stone
You can build your house of brick
You can build your house of stone
But surely as you put it on
This earth my friend
Just as likely it'll fall on down
And you can build it high as a mountain
Oh, you can build it thick as a wall
But surely as you put it on
This earth my friends it's gonna fall
You can some men they work on the railroad
And some men they work in a store
And some figured out a long time ago
Just as well not to work at all
And you can build it high as a mountain
Oh, you can build it thick as a wall
But surely as you put it on
This earth my friends it's gonna fall
This road ain't leadin' me to glory
This path ain't takin' me on home
Don't ask my woman where I'm goin'
I don't believe she knows I'm gone
And you can build it high as a mountain
Oh, you can build it thick as a wall
But surely as you put it on
This earth my friends it's gonna fall
Well, you can
Well, you can.
You can build your house of stone
But surely as you put it on
This earth my friend
Just as likely it'll fall on down
And you can build it high as a mountain
Oh, you can build it thick as a wall
But surely as you put it on
This earth my friends it's gonna fall
You can some men they work on the railroad
And some men they work in a store
And some figured out a long time ago
Just as well not to work at all
And you can build it high as a mountain
Oh, you can build it thick as a wall
But surely as you put it on
This earth my friends it's gonna fall
This road ain't leadin' me to glory
This path ain't takin' me on home
Don't ask my woman where I'm goin'
I don't believe she knows I'm gone
And you can build it high as a mountain
Oh, you can build it thick as a wall
But surely as you put it on
This earth my friends it's gonna fall
Well, you can
Well, you can.
