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 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 a-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

This ole house is gettin' shaky

This ole house is gettin' old

This ole house let's in the rain

This ole house let's in the cold

On my knees I'm gettin' chilly

But I feel no fear nor pain

'Cause I see an angel peekin'

Through the broken windowpane

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 a-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

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 out it's 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 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 mend no windowpane

Ain't a-gonna need this house no longer

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

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 mend no windowpane

Ain't a-gonna need this house no longer

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

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 a-got time to fix the floor
