[Intro]
C7 Ab7 Bb7
[Verse 1]
C7 F7
Now, if I was a bricklayer,
C7
I wouldn't build just any-thing;
F7
And if I was a ball player,
C7
I wouldn't play no second string.
Ab7 Bb7
And if I were some jew'lry, baby;
C7
Lord, I'd have to be a diamond ring.
[Verse 2]
C7 F7 C7
If I were a secret, lord, I never would be told.
F7 C7
If I were a jug of wine, then all my flavor would be old.
Ab7
I could be most anything,
Bb7 C7
But it got to be twenty-four karat solid gold, oh.
[Verse 3]
C7
If I were a gambler, you know I'd never lose,
F7
And if I were a guitar player,
C7
Lord, I'd have to play the blues.
[Instrumental]
C7 F7 C7 F7 C7 Ab7 Bb7 C7
[Verse 4]
C7 F7 C7
If I was a hacksaw, my blade would be razor sharp.
F7 C7
If I were a politician, I could prove that monkeys talk.
Ab7
You can find the tallest building,
Bb7 C7
Lord, I'd have me the house on top.
C7
Oh, let's go!
[Instrumental]
C7 F7 C7 F7 C7 Ab7 Bb7 C7
[Verse 5]
C7
I'm the penthouse pauper;
F7 C7
I got nothin' to my name.
F7
I'm the penthouse pauper; baby,
C7
I got nothing to my name.
Ab7
I can be most anything,
Bb7 C7
'cause when you got nothin' it's all the same.
C7
Oh, let's move to this song!
[Outro]
C7 F7 C7 F7 C7 Ab7 Bb7 C7
F7 C7
Lord, look at my penthouse.
