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.
