A Hundred Pounds of Clay:
Gene McDaniels: #3 1n '61.

#1.

          Bb                Gm
He took a hundred pounds of clay,
            Cm7        F7
And then He said "Hey, listen".
           Bb               Gm
"I'm gonna fix this-a world today,'
           Cm7         F7
"Because I know what's missin'.'
        Eb                     F7
Then He rolled his big sleeves up,
      Eb              F7
And a brand-new world began,
   Bb        Gm          Cm9    F7           Bb    
He created a woman and a lot of lovin' for a man,
            Eb     Bb
Whoa-oh-oh, yes he did..

#2.

            Bb                Gm
With just a hundred pounds of clay,
           Cm7        F7
He made my life worth livin',
           Bb              Gm
And I will thank Him every day,
          Cm7         F7
For every kiss you're givin',
         Eb              F7
And I'll thank Him every night,
        Eb                F7
For the arms that hold me tight,
       Bb     Gm       Cm9    F7                Bb
And He did it all with just a hundred pounds of clay,
       Eb                   Bb
Yes he did, whoa-oh, yes He did.


CHORUS:

                  Bb                 Bdim
Now can'tcha just see Him a-walkin' 'round and 'round,
Cm7                 F7  
Pickin' the clay up off the ground?
Bb                Bdim
Knowin' just what He should do,
   Cm7           F7
To make a livin' dream like you..


#3.

Eb                        F7
He rolled His big sleeves up,
      Eb              F7
And a brand new world began,
   Bb        Gm          Cm9    F7           Bb
He created a woman and a lot of lovin' for a man.
Eb                 Bb
Whoa-oh-oh, yes he did.
