Billy Walker
This Ole House

(Stuart Hamblen)

This ole house once I knew my children
This ole house once I knew my wife
This ole house was joy and comfort
As we fought the storms of life.

This ole house once rang with laughter
This ole house heard many a shouts
Now she trembles in the darkness
When the lightnin' walks about.

Ain't a gonna need this house no longer
Ain't a gonna need this house no more
Ain't got time to fix the shingles
Ain't got time to fix the floor.

Ain't got time to oil the hinges
Nor to mingle the window panes
Ain't gonna need this house no longer
I'm a gettin' ready to meet the saints.

This ole house is a gettin' shaky
This ole house is gettin' old
This ole house lets in the rain
This ole house lets in the cold.

On my knees are gettin' chilly
But I feel no fear or pain
'Cause I can see an angel peekin' through
A broken window pane.

Ain't a gonna need this house no longer
Ain't a gonna need this house no more
Ain't got time to fix the shingles
Ain't got time to fix the floor.

--- Instrumental ---

My old hound dog lies a sleepin'
He don't know I'm gonna leave
Else he'd wake up by the fireplace
And he'd sit there and howl and grieve.

But my huntin' days are over
Ain't gonna hunt the coon no more
Gabriel done brought in my chariot
When the wind blew down the door.

Ain't a gonna need this house no longer
Ain't a gonna need this house no more
Ain't got time to fix the shingles
Ain't got time to fix the floor...


Mirror lyrics:

Ain't got time to fix the floor...
Ain't got time to fix the shingles
Ain't a gonna need this house no more
Ain't a gonna need this house no longer

When the wind blew down the door.
Gabriel done brought in my chariot
Ain't gonna hunt the coon no more
But my huntin' days are over

And he'd sit there and howl and grieve.
Else he'd wake up by the fireplace
He don't know I'm gonna leave
My old hound dog lies a sleepin'

--- Instrumental ---

Ain't got time to fix the floor.
Ain't got time to fix the shingles
Ain't a gonna need this house no more
Ain't a gonna need this house no longer

A broken window pane.
'Cause I can see an angel peekin' through
But I feel no fear or pain
On my knees are gettin' chilly

This ole house lets in the cold.
This ole house lets in the rain
This ole house is gettin' old
This ole house is a gettin' shaky

I'm a gettin' ready to meet the saints.
Ain't gonna need this house no longer
Nor to mingle the window panes
Ain't got time to oil the hinges

Ain't got time to fix the floor.
Ain't got time to fix the shingles
Ain't a gonna need this house no more
Ain't a gonna need this house no longer

When the lightnin' walks about.
Now she trembles in the darkness
This ole house heard many a shouts
This ole house once rang with laughter

As we fought the storms of life.
This ole house was joy and comfort
This ole house once I knew my wife
This ole house once I knew my children
