Now, if I were a bricklayer
I wouldn't build just anything
And if I were a ball player
I wouldn't play no second string
And if I were some jewelry, baby
Lord, I'd have to be a diamond ring
If I were a secret
Lord, I never would be told
And if I were a jug of wine
Lord, my flavor would be old
I could be most anything
But it got to be 24 karat solid gold
If I were a gambler
You know, I'd never lose
If I were a guitar player
Lord, I'd have to play the blues
If I were a hacksaw
My blade be razor sharp
And if I were a politician
I could prove that monkey talk
You can find the tallest buildin'
Lord, I'd have me the house on top
Oh, let's go
Alright
I'm the penthouse pauper
I got nothing to my name
I'm the penthouse pauper, baby
I got nothing to my name
I can be most anything
Oh, when you got nothin', it's all the same
Oh, let's move, move, oh
Lord, look at my penthouse
