He took a
hundred pounds of clay
And they He said "Hey, listen"
"I'm gonna fix
this-a world today"
"Because I know what's missin' "
Then He rolled his
big sleeves up
And a brand-new world began
He created a woman and-a lots
of lovin' for a man
Whoa-oh-oh, yes he did

With just a hundred pounds
of clay
He made my life worth livin'
And I will thank Him every day
For
every kiss you're givin'
And I'll thank Him every night
For the arms that
are holdin' me tight
And He did it all with just a hundred pounds of
clay
Yes he did, whoa-oh, yes He did

Now can'tcha just see Him
a-walkin' 'round and 'round
Pickin' the clay uppa off the ground?
Doin'
just what He should do
To make a livin' dream like you

He rolled His
big sleeves up
And a brand-new world began
He created a woman and-a lots
of lovin' for a man
Whoa-oh-oh, yes he did
With just a hundred pounds of
clay

FADE
People, let me tall ya what He did
With just a hundred
pounds of clay
