This is an unmodified cut of a version of Stuart Hamblen’s song This Ole House as it was presented live on Minipops.
This Ole House Lyrics
This ole house once knew his children
This ole house once knew a wife
This ole house was home and comfort
As we 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 floor
Ain't got time to oil the hinges
Nor to mеnd no windowpane
Ain't a-gonna need this house no longer
Shе's a-gettin' ready to meet the saints
