Album: A Tribute to the Cathedral Quartet
"This Ole House"
(v1: Solo)
This old house once knew my children
This old house once knew my wife
This old house was home and comfort as we fought the storms of life
Pre-Chorus A
This old house once rang with laughter
This old house heard many shouts, now she trembles in the darkness when the lightning walks about.
Chorus: Trio Unison
Ain't gonna need this house no longer
Ain't 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 gonna need this house no longer
I'm getting ready to meet the saints
(v2: Solo)
This old house is getting shaky
This old house is getting old
This old house lets in the rain and
This old house lets in the cold
Pre-Chorus B
On my knees I'm getting skinny
But I feel no fear or pain
Cause I see an angel peeking through
A broken window pane
Chorus
Bridge:
Now my old hound dog lies a sleeping
He don't know I'm gonna leave
Else he'd wake up by the fireplace
And he'd sit there, howl and grieve
But my hunting days are over, I ain't gonna hunt the 'coon no more. Gabriel done brought in chariot, when the wind blew down the door!
Chorus
"When the Saints Go Marching In"
Chorus
When the saints go marching in
Oh when the saints go marching in
Oh Lord I want to be in that number, when the saints go marching in. (2x)
