You coulda worked on the building You coulda worked on the building You coulda worked on the building That I was working on You coulda tried a little harder You coulda tried a little harder You coulda tried a little harder Till everyone else was gone You coulda stayed a little longer You coulda stayed a little longer You coulda stayed a little longer Till the building was all done You coulda cried by the river You coulda cried by the river You coulda cried by the river Till your crying was all gone You coulda sang a little louder You coulda sang a little louder You coulda sang a little louder Till you run out of songs But you turned and you ran But you turned and you ran You turned and you ran Now the building stands undone
