One Brick At A Time                                    © L. Dunn ‘99

                        Verse               I keep on pushin’ I won’t let up

                                                Not about to wait around on lady luck

                                                The odds she’ll come knockin’ are slim to none

                                                And sleepin’ on the job won’t get it done

                                                One more day another dollar and dime

                                                Layin’ it down one brick at a time

                        Verse               Now just today my mother told me son

                                                Don’t you worry your time will come

                                                Nothin’ ever came easy to you

                                                So you better remember what you’ve gotta do

                                                Rome wasn’t built overnight

                                                You’ve gotta lay it down one brick at a time

                        Bridge             Another day another dollar ten

                                                And when tomorrow comes

                                                I’ll get up and do it again

                                                Solo

                        Verse               Don’t have any money but I’ve been blessed

                                                With a strong back and a hard head

                                                Been a mighty long road I’ve traveled on

                                                With nothin’ but a guitar and a rock ‘n’ roll song

                                                One more night another dollar and dime

                                                Layin’ it down one lick at a time

                                                Solo    

                        Bridge             Another day another dollar ten

                                                And when tomorrow comes

                                                I’ll get up and do it again

                        Verse               I keep on pushin’ I won’t let up

                                                Not about to wait around on lady luck

                                                The odds she’ll come knockin’ are slim to none

                                                And sleepin’ on the job won’t get it done

                                                One more day another dollar and dime

                                                Layin’ it down one brick at a time

                                                Another day another dollar and dime layin’ it down one brick at a time

                                                Another day another dollar and dime layin’ it down

Layin’ it down one brick at a time
