So much trouble in this time, so many stairs to climb 
Build your house upon the sand. you know that it wont 
stand 
got my hammer in my hand 
It takes rocks and gravel don't it 
To build that wall around it 
And rock so high now baby 
Until I can't get over it 
And rock so hard now mama 
And Hammer all night to break it 
Its the thing that I can't have baby 
It Makes me want to take it 

Still so many hands to hold. the Lies I have not told 
Let my conscience be my guide. When there's no one to 
confide 
I feel it start to slide 
It takes rocks and gravel don't it 
To build that wall around it 
And rock so high now baby 
And rock so hard now mama 
And hammer all night to break it 
Its the thing that I can't have baby 
Makes me want to take it 

She's nineteen years old 
She's nineteen years old 
She's nineteen years old 
And she got ways like a baby child 
It takes rocks and gravel don't it 
To build that wall around it 
Then rock so high now baby 
Till I can't get over it 
And rock so hard now mama 
Hammer all night to break it 
Its the thing that I can't have baby 
Makes me want to take it 
Said it makes me want to take it 
Makes me want to take it 
Then makes me want to take it 
If it takes all night to break it
