Текст песни This Ole' House - Foster , Allen

This ole house once knew his children
This ole house once new his wife
This ole house was home and comfort
As they fought the storms of life

This ole house once rang with laughter
This ole house heard many shouts
Now he trembles in the darkness
When the lightning 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 mend no window panes
Ain't gonna need this house no longer
He's getting ready to meet his fate

This ole house is getting shaky
This ole house is getting old
This ole house lets in the rain
This ole house lets in the cold
Oh his knees are a getting chilly
But he feels no fear or pain
Cause he sees an Angel peeking
Through a broken window pain

(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 mend nor window panes
Ain't gonna need this house no longer
He's getting 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 flings out it's arms
This ole house is getting feeble
This ole house is a needing paint
Just like me it's starting to tumble
Im getting ready to meet the saint

(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 mend no window panes
Ain't gonna need this house no longer
He's getting ready to meet his 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 the shingles
Ain't got time to fix the floor
Ain't got time to oil the hinges
Nor to mend no window panes
Ain't gonna need this house no longer
He's getting ready to meet his saint
