By Woodie Guthrie. I’ve changed some words.
You grab a board, I’ll grab a block,
We’ll build a house with what we’ve got.
While we work we’ll sing this song,
Everybody, sing along:
Bling blang, hammer with my hammer,
Zingo zango, cutting with my saw.
I’ll grab mud, you grab clay,
So when it rains it won’t wash away.
We’ll build a house that will be so strong,
The wind will sing my baby a song.
Bling blang, hammer with my hammer,
Zingo zango, cutting with my saw.
You bring rocks, I’ll bring bricks,
A cozy home we’ll build and fix.
Jump inside when the cold winds blow,
Away from all the rain and snow.
Bling blang, hammer with my hammer,
Zingo zango, cutting with my saw.
