This Ole House
Jimmy Dean
C
This ole house once knew my children
F
This ole house once knew my wife
G7
This ole house was home and comfort
C
As we fought the storms of life
This ole house once rang with laughter
F
This ole house heard many a shouts
C
Now she trembles in the darkness
G7 C
When the lightnin' walks about
F
I ain't a gonna need this house no longer
C
Ain't a gonna need this house no more
G7
Ain't got time to fix his shingles
C
Ain't got time to fix the door
F
Ain't got time to oil the hinges
C
Nor to mind the window panes
G7
I ain't gonna need this house no longer
C
I'm gettin' ready to meet the saints
This ole house is a gettin' shaky
F
This ole house is a gettin' old
G7
This ole house stands in the rain
C
This ole house stands in the cold
Oh my knees are gettin' chilly
F
But I feel no fear or pain
C
Cause I see an angel a peekin'
G7 C
Through a broken window pane
This ole house is afraid of thunder
F
This ole house is afraid of storms
G7
This ole house just groans and trembles
C
When the night wind flings his arms
This ole house is a gettin' feeble
F
This ole house is a needin' paint
C
Just like me it's tuckered out
G7 C
But I'm gonna get ready to meet the saints
Now my hound dog lies a-sleepin'
F
He don't know I'm gonna leave
G7
Else he'd wake up by the fireplace
C
And he'd sit there and howl and greive
But my huntin' days are over
F
Ain't gonna hunt the coon no more
C
Gabriel done grought in my chariot
G7 C
When the wind blew down the door
