This Ole House
This ole house once knew my children this house once knew my wifeThis ole house was joy and comfort as we fought the storms of lifeThis ole house once rang with laughter this ole house heard many a shoutsNow she trembles in the darkness oh when the lightnin' walks aboutI ain't a gonna need this house no longer ain't a gonna need this house no moreAin't got time to fix his shingles ain't got time to fix the doorAin't got time to oil the hinges nor to mingle the window panesI ain't gonna need this house no longer I'm gettin' ready to meet the saintsThis ole house is a gettin' shaky this ole house is a gettin' oldThis ole house stands in the rain this ole house stands in the coldOh my knees are gettin' chilly but I feel no fear or pain'Cause I can see an angel a peekin' through a broken window paneI ain't a gonna need this house no longer...This ole house is afraid of thunder this ole house is afraid of stormsThis ole house just groans and trembles when the night come flings his armsThis ole house is a gettin' feeble this ole house is a needin' paintJust like me it's tuckered out but I'm gonna get ready to meet the saintsI ain't a gonna need this house no longer...
