This ole house once knew with children this old
House once 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 oh when the
Lightnin walks about
I ain't a gonna need this house no longer ain't
A gonna need this house no more
Ain't got time to fix his shingles ain't got time to fix the door
Ain't got time to oil the hinges nor to mingle
The window panes
I ain't gonna need this house no longer
I'm gettin ready to meet the saints
This ole house is a gettin shaky this ole house is a gettin old
This ole house stands in the rain this
Ole house stands in the cold
Oh my with knees are gettin chilly but
I feel no fear or pain
Cause i can see you learn to begin
Do a broken window pane
I ain't a gonna need this house no longer
Ain't a gonna need this house no more
Ain't got time to fix his shingles ain't
Got time to fix the floor
Ain't got time to oil the hinges nor to mingle the window panes
I ain't gonna need this house no longer
I'm gettin ready to meet the saints
This ole house is afraid of thunder this
Ole house is afraid of storms
This ole house just groans and trembles
When the night come flings his arms
This ole house is a gettin feeble this
Ole house is a needin paint
Just like me it's tuckered out
But I'm gonna get ready to meet the saints
Ain't a gonna need this house no
Longer ain't a gonna need this house no more
Ain't got time to fix his shingles ain't
Got time to fix the floor
Ain't got time to oil the hinges nor to
Mingle the window panes
I ain't gonna need this house no longer
I'm gettin ready to meet the saints
I ain't gonna need this house no longer
Aint agonna 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 windowpane
Aint agonna need this house no longer
I'm gettin ready to meet the saints
