This Old House

This ole house is afraid of thunder
This ole house is afraid of storms
This ole house just groans and trembles
When the night wind flings its arms
This ole house is gettin' feeble
This old house is needin' paint
Just like him it's tuckered out
But he's a-gettin' ready to meet the saints
CHORUS

This ole house dog lies a-sleepin'
He don't know I'm gonna leave
Else he'd wake up by the fireplace
And he'd sit there and howl and grieve
But my huntin' days are over
Ain't gonna hunt the coon no more
Gabriel done brought in my chariot
When the wind blew down the door

It was so special to visit here. Ignored No Trespassing signs and crawled up inside through the floor joists as they had sold off the flooring, preparing for demolition. Historic society intervened, though probably too late, so it hasn't been torn down. Just sitting and waiting.
