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 I only know I'm gonna try (yeah yeah)
Gonna build me a daydream (yeah yeah) From a little hope (yeah yeah)
Gonna push that daydream (yeah yeah) Up the mountain slope (yeah yeah)
Gonna build a daydream (yeah yeah) Gonna see it through (yeah yeah)
Gonna build a mountain and a daydream Gonna make them both come true (yeah yeah)
Gonna build a heaven From a little hell
Gonna build me a heaven And I know darn well
If I build my mountain with a lot of care And take my daydream up the mountain
And heaven will be waiting there
When I build that heaven as I will someday
I'll leave a son in my heaven on earth
With the good Lord's grace.
Look at that mountain! I'm gonna build that mountain!
I'll leave a son in my heaven on earth with the good Lord's grace.
