Alma Cogan - In The Middle Of The House Lyrics

Lyrics In The Middle Of The House - Alma Cogan



The railroad comes through the middle of the houseThe railroad comes through the middle of the houseThe trains all come through the middle of the houseSince the company bought the land.
They let us live in the front of the houseThey let us live in the backBut there ain't no living in the middle of the house'Cause that's the railroad track.
When a bill collector comes to the houseHe knocks and bangs on the doorSo we sit him right down in the middle of the houseAnd he never comes back no moreNo, he never comes back no more.
The railroad comes through the middle of the houseThe railroad comes through the middle of the houseIt comes and goes through the middle of the houseAnd the trains are all on timeAnd here comes the 5: 09.
The railroad comes through the middle of the houseIn and out of the middle of the houseRight smack dab through the middle of the houseWhere the parlor used to be.
There's a great big door in the front of the houseA little old door in the backBut we can't have doors in the middle of the house'Cause that's the railroad track.
No a relative came to visit the houseHe liked to scream and fussSo we sat him right down in the middle of the houseAnd he never more bothered usNo, he never more bothered us.
Oh, the railroad comes through the middle of the houseThe railroad comes through the middle of the houseIt comes and goes through the middle of the houseSince the company bought the land.
I'm singing this song in the middle of the house.
