House on a Mountain

[Verse 1]
I know a man that goes to church on Sunday
No one but me knows where he goes on Monday
Everyone thinks he's as good as can be
If they knew what I know, they'd quit talking 'bout me

[Chorus]
I'm gonna build me a house on top of a mountain
For miles and miles, I'll be able to see
I'm gonna build me a house on top of a mountain
And look down on the people who've been looking down on me

[Verse 2]
I drive a car with dents in the fenders
Live in a house that's full of broken windows
I wear overalls and there's holes in my shoes
But I'vе got the right to live as I choose

[Chorus]
I'm gonna build mе a house on top of a mountain
For miles and miles, I'll be able to see
I'm gonna build me a house on top of a mountain
And look down on the people who've been looking down on me

[Verse 3]
I've been criticized for not being neater
Been called everything from a liar to a cheater
When I build my house, things will look differently
No one will be able to look down on me

[Chorus]
I'm gonna build me a house on top of a mountain
For miles and miles, I'll be able to see
I'm gonna build me a house on top of a mountain
And look down on the people who've been looking down on me
I'm gonna build me a house on top of a mountain
For miles and miles, I'll be able to see
I'm gonna build me a house on top of a mountain
And look down on the people who've been looking down on me
