C7 G#7 A#7
Couplet
C7Now if I was a bricklayer F7
I wouldn't build just anyC7thing;
F7And if I was a ball player
I wouldn't play no second C7string.
And if I G#7were some jew'lry baby; A#7
Lord I'd have to be a diamond C7ring.
Couplet
C7If I were a secret F7lord I never would be C7told.
F7If I were a jug of wine then all my flavor would be C7old.
I could be G#7most anything
A#7But it got to be twenty-four karat solid C7gold oh.

C7If I was a hacksaw F7my blade would be razor C7sharp.
