I'm workin' on a building, I'm workin' on a building,
I'm workin' on a building, for my Lord, for my Lord.


If IIIIIIIIIIIIII were a drunkard, tell you what I'd do,
I'd quit my drinkin', and work on a building too.


[Chorus:]
I'm workin' on a building, I'm workin' on a building,
I'm workin' on a building, for my Lord, for my Lord.

It'a a Holy Ghost building, It'a a Holy Ghost building,
It'a a Holy Ghost building, for my Lord, for my Lord.


If IIIIIIIIIIIIII were a gambler, tell you what I'd do,
I'd quit my gamblin', and I'd work on a building too.


[Chorus]

If IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII were a preacher, tell you what I'd do,

I'd keep on preachin', and I'd work on a building too.

[Chorus x3]
