This Old House — текст песни (brian setzer orchestra)

Written by s. hamblen



This old house once knew its children

This old house once knew its wife

This old house was home and comfort

As they fought the storms of life



This old house once rang with laughter

This old house heard many shouts

Now it trembles in the darkness

When the lightning walks about



Aint gonna need this house no longer

Aint gonna need this house no more

Aint got time to fix the shingles

Aint got time to fix the floor

Aint got time to oil the hinges

Nor to mend the window pain

Aint gonna need this house no longer

Hes getting ready to meet the saints



This old house is gettin shaky

This old house is gettin old

This old house has seen the rain

This old house has seen the cold



Oh his knees are gettin chilly

But he feels no fear or pain

cause he sees an angel peepin

Through a broken window pane



Aint gonna need this house no longer

Aint gonna need this house no more

Aint got time to fix the shingles

Aint got time to fix the floor

Aint got time to oil the hinges

Nor to mend the window pain

Aint gonna need this house no longer

Hes getting ready to meet the saints



This old house is gettin shaky

This old house is gettin old

This old house has seen the rain

This old house has seen the cold



Oh his knees are gettin chilly

But he feels no fear or pain

cause he sees an angel peepin

Through a broken window pane



Aint gonna need this house no longer

Aint gonna need this house no more

Aint got time to fix the shingles

Aint got time to fix the floor

Aint got time to oil the hinges

Nor to mend the window pain

Aint gonna need this house no longer

Hes getting ready to meet the saints (repeat)
