Now,{D7}if I were a bricklayer,{G} 
I wouldn't build just any-{D7}thing; 
And if I was a G ball player, 
I wouldn't play no second D7}string. 
And A#7}if I were some jewelry, baby; A7 
Lord, I'd have to be a diamond D7}ring.

If I were a secret, Lord, I never would be told. 
If I were a jug of wine, Lord, my flavor would be old. 
I could be most anything, 
But it got to be twenty-four karat solid gold, oh.

If I was a hacksaw, My blade would be razor sharp. 
If I were a politician, I could prove that monkeys talk. 
You can find the tallest building, 
Lord, I'd have me the house on top. 
 
SOLO 
Oh, let's go! 
All right, keep going! 
 
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, 
When you got nothing it's all the same. 
 
SOLO 
Oh, let's move to this song! 
Lord, look at my penthouse.
