This Old House Lyrics - Nrbq

This ole house once knew his children 

This ole house once knew his wife 

This ole house was home and comfort 

As they fought the storms of life 

This old house once rang with laughter 

This old house heard many shouts 

Now he trembles in the darkness 

When the lightnin' walks about 

[Chorus] 

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 the window-pane 

Ain't a-gonna need this house no longer 

He's a-gettin' ready to meet the saints

This ole house is a-gettin' shaky 

This ole house is a-gettin' old 

This ole house lets in the rain 

This ole house lets in the cold 

Oh his knees are-a gettin' chilly 

But he feel no fear or pain 

'Cause he sees an angel peekin' 

Through a broken window-pane 

[Chorus] 

This ole house is afraid of thunder 

This ole house is afraid of storms 

This ole house just groans and trembles 

When the night wind flings its arms 

This ole house is a-gettin' feeble 

This old house is a-needin' paint 

Just like him it's tuckered out 

But he's a-gettin' ready to meet the saints

[Chorus] 

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 the window-pane 

Ain't a-gonna need this house no longer 

He's a-gettin' ready to meet the saints
