Gonna Build A Mountain

Gonna build a mountain from a little hill

Gonna build me a mountain, least I hope I will

Gonna build a mountain, gonna build it high

I don't know how I'm gonna do it, only know I'm gonna try

Gonna build me a daydream from a little hope

Gonna push that daydream up the mountain slope

Gonna build a daydream, gonna see it through

Gonna build a mountain and a daydream, gonna make 'em both come true

Gonna build me a heaven from a little hell

Gonna build me a heaven, and I know darn well

That if I build a mountain, oh yeah, with a lot of care

I'll take our daydream up the mountain, and a heaven will be waiting there

Oh yeah

Oh yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah

When I build that heaven, as I will someday

And the Lord sends Gabriel to take me away

I want a fine young son to take my place

I need a son in a heaven on Earth with the good Lord's grace
