Karaoké This Ole House Shakin' Stevens

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 old house once rang with laughter

This old house heard many shouts

Now she trembles in the darkness when the lightnin' walks about

Ain't got time to fix the shingles ain't got time to fix the floor

Ain't a-got time to oil the hinges nor to mend no windowpane

Ain't a-gonna need this house no longer

She's a-gettin' ready to meet the saints

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

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

On my knees I'm gettin' chilly but I feel no fear nor pain

'Cos I see an angel peekin' through the broken windowpane

Ain't got time to fix the shingles ain't got time to fix the floor

Ain't a-got time to oil the hinges nor to mend no windowpane

Ain't a-gonna need this house no longer

She's a-gettin' ready to meet the saints

Ooh

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

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

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

Just like me it's tuckered out but I'm a-gettin' ready to meet the saints

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 windowpane

Ain't a-gonna need this house no longer

She's a-gettin' ready to meet the saints

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 windowpane

Ain't a-gonna need this house no longer

She's a-gettin' ready to meet the saints
