Step Inside This House Lyrics - Lyle Lovett

That picture hangin' on the wall 

Was painted by a friend 

He gave it to me all down and out 

When he owed me ten 

It doesn't look like much I guess 

But it's all that's left of him 

It sure is nice from right over here 

When the light's a little dim 

Step inside this house girl 

I'll sing for you a song 

I'll tell you 'bout just where I've been 

It shouldn't take too long 

I'll show you all the things that I own 

My treasures you might say 

It couldn't be more then ten dollars worth 

They brighten up my day

And this book of poems was given to me 

By a girl I used to know 

I guess I read it front to back 

Fifty times or so 

It's all about the good life 

And stayin' at ease with the world 

It's funny how I love that book 

And I never loved that girl 

Step inside this house girl 

I'll sing for you a song 

I'll tell you 'bout just where I've been 

It shouldn't take too long 

I'll show you all the things that I own 

My treasures you might say 

It couldn't be more then ten dollars worth 

That brighten up my day

And you hold this piece of glass 

Up to the light that's shining through the door 

It's a prism glass I found it on the road 

And can't you see that tiny rainbow? 

It's not really a prism I guess 

It just kinda broke a funny way 

I was on my way through Houston 

And I was headed for L.A. 

And step inside this house girl 

I'll sing for you a song 

I'll tell you 'bout just where I've been 

It shouldn't take too long 

I'll show you all the things that I own 

My treasures you might say 

It couldn't be more then ten dollars worth 

That brighten up my day 

And this guitar was given me 

By an old man Thomas Gray 

It's not too much to look at 

But I play it everyday 

It's been across this country 

Four or five times I guess 

Between me and old man Tom 

It never got much rest 

Step inside this house girl 

I'll sing for you a song 

I'll tell you 'bout just where I've been 

It shouldn't take too long 

I'll show you all the things that I own 

My treasures you might say 

It couldn't be more then ten dollars worth 

That brighten up my day 

And that's just about all that I own 

All I care to I guess 

Except this pair of boots maybe 

And that funny yellow vest 

And that leather jacket and that leather bag 

And hat hangin' on the wall 

Just so it's not too much to carry be 

Could I see you again next fall? 

Step inside this house girl 

I'll sing for you a song 

I'll tell you 'bout just where I've been 

It shouldn't take too long 

I'll show you all the things that I own 

My treasures you might say 

It couldn't be more then ten dollars worth 

That brighten up my day
