You can build your house out of bricks
You can build your house out of stone
But as likely as you put it on the dirt, my friend
It's likely it'll fall on down
Well, you can build it high as a mountain
Well, you can build it thick as a wall
But as surely as you put it on the dirt, my friend
It's gonna fall, fall-fall-fall
Some men they work for the railroad
Some men they work in a store
And some figured out a long time ago
Just will not work at all
Well, you can build it high as a mountain
Well, you can build it thick as a wall
But as surely as you put it on the dirt, my friend
It's gonna fall, fall-fall-fall
This road ain't leadin' me to glory
This path ain't leadin' me on home
Don't ask my woman where I'm goin'
I don't believe she knows I'm gone
Well, you can build it high as a mountain
Well, you can build it thick as a wall
But as surely as you put it on the dirt, my friend
It's gonna fall, fall-fall-fall
Well, you can build it high as a mountain
Well, you can build it thick as a wall
But as surely as you put it on the dirt, my friend
It's gonna fall, fall-fall-fall
Yeah, you can build it as high as a mountain
