This Ole House Video (MV)

This ole house once knew my children in this house I was a wife

This ole house was home and comfort as I fought the storms of life

This ole house once rang with laughter this ole house heard many shouts

Now she trembles in the darkness when the lightnin' 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 floors

Ain't got time to oil the hinges nor to mingle the window panes

I ain't gonna need this house no longer I'm a gettin' ready to meet the saints

[ piano ]

This ole house is a gettin' shaky this ole house is a gettin' old

This ole house stands in the rain this ole house stands in the cold

On my knees I'm gettin' chilly but I feel no fear or pain

Cause I see an angel peeking through a broken window pane

Ain't a gonna need this house no longer...

[ guitar ]

This ole house is afraid of thunder this ole house is afraid of storms

This ole house just groans and trembles when the night went flings its arms

This ole house is a gettin' feeble this ole house is a needin' paint

Just like me it's broken out but I'm gonna get ready to meet the saints

Ain't a gonna need this house no longer...

Ain't a gonna need this house no longer...
