Lyrics
Well, I 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 mend no window panes
Ain't gonna need this house no longer
I'm getting ready to meet the saints
Well, this ole house once knew my children
This ole house once knew my 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 lightning walks about
Well, I 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 no window panes
Ain't gonna need this house no longer
I'm getting ready to meet the saints
Now this ole house is getting shaky
This ole house is getting old
This ole house lets in the rain
This ole house lets in the cold
My knees are getting chilly
But I feel no fear nor pain
'Cause I can see a new tomorrow
Through a golden window pane
Well, I 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 no window panes
Ain't gonna need this house no longer
I'm getting ready to meet the saints, yeah
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 howl and moan and grieve
But my hunting days are over
Ain't gonna hunt the coon no more
Gabriel just brought in my chariot
When the wind blew down the door
Well, I 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 no window panes
Ain't gonna need this house no longer
I'm getting ready to meet the saints
Well, I 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 no window panes
Ain't gonna need this house no longer
I'm getting ready to meet the saints
