Do do do do do do dooo |
|
Do do do do do do dooo |
|
You built you a house of wood, yeah |
|
A wood house, yeah, where love once stood |
|
Though the time you spent together was very short |
|
Then like a giant hand came gale winds |
|
From the north, yeah |
|
And just blew your house away |
|
And left your skies a gray |
|
As you thought of yesterday, yeah |
|
Gone, gone, house of wood, yeah Lord |
|
So you built you a house of stone |
|
You know it tore ya and scarred your bones |
|
You can't help be overwhelmed with joy |
|
'Cause once again, once again you saw life |
|
Through the eyes of a baby boy |
|
Until the one night rain began |
|
Turned your little stone house to sand |
|
There you stood, there you stood all alone, yeah |
|
Gone, gone, house of stone, ohh, yeah |
|
Sometimes I think I know you, how you feel |
|
So they built you a box of wood |
|
And planted it deep where love once stood |
|
Though the wind and rain still blowin' hard |
|
You won't mind 'cause you feel no pain at all, yeah |
|
Though you see the sun no more |
|
You have rest in peace for sure |
|
As I kinda close the door, yeah |
|
To your good, good, yeah, good |
|
(Good box of wood) |
|
Box a wood |
|
Now, now a house of wood |
|
Grandpa, grandpa |
|
(Good, good box of wood) |
|
Ain't no need to worry, yeah |
|
I hear the chariots |
|
Swingin' over, yeah |
|
Here they come |
|
(Good, good box of wood) |
|
(Good box of wood) |
|
To carry you home |
