If I was a sinner I'll tell you what I would do
I'd quit my sinning and I'd work on the building, too

I'm working on a building, I'm working on a building
I'm worknig on a 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 gambler, I'll tell you what I would do
I'd quit my gambling and I'd work on the building, too

* Refrain

If I was a drunkard I'll tell you what I would do
I'd quit my drinking and I'd work on the building, too

* Refrain

If I was a preacher, I'll tell you what I would do
I'd keep on preaching and I'd work on the building, too

* Refrain
