Gonna Build a Mountain - Sammy Davis, Jr., Marty Paich

1: I’m gonna build a mountain, from a little hill

I’m gonna build a mountain, least I hope I will

I’m gonna build a mountain, I’m gonna build it high

I don’t know how I’m gonna do it, only know I’m gonna try

2: I’m gonna build a daydream, from a little hope

I’m gonna push the daydream, up that mountain slope

I’m gonna build a daydream, woah, I’m gonna see it through

Gonna build a mountain and a daydream

Gonna make 'em both come true

3: I’m gonna build a heaven, as a will someday

And the Lord sends Ga-bri-el to take me away

Woah, I wanna fine young son, to take my place

I’ll leave my son in my heaven on earth with the good Lord’s grace

4: I’m gonna build a mountain, from a little hill

I’m gonna build a mountain, least I hope I will

I’m gonna build a mountain, yeah, gonna see it through

Gonna build a mountain and a daydream

Gonna make 'em both come true
