The House That Jack Built 歌詞

This is the house that Jack built y'all

 

Remember this house

This was the land that he worked by hand

It was the dream of an upright man

This was the room that was filled with love

It was a love that he was proud of

This was a life of a love he planned

Of a love and a life we loved

In the house that Jack built

(the house that Jack built)

Remember this house

 

There was the fence that held our love (yes it was)

There was the gate that he walked out of

This is the heart that is turned to stone (yes it is)

This was the house but it ain't no home

 

This is the love that I once had

In a dream that I thought was love

In the house that Jack built (the house that Jack built)

I'm gonn' remember this house

 

Oh-ohh wha-a-at's the use of crying

'Cause I brought it on myself

There's no denying

But it see-e-ee-ems awful funny

 

That I didn't understand

Was it a house of an upright man

Up on the hill

There's a big plan still

 

In the house that Jack built

(the house that Jack built)

I'm gonn' remember this house

(the house that Jack built)

Listen

I got the house

I got the car

I got the rug

And I got the rack

But I ain't got Jack (Jack)

(I ain't got Jack Jack)

And I want my Jack back

 

I turned my back on Jack

He said he wasn't coming back

I turned my back on Jack

He said he wasn't coming back

Ohhh Jack

Ohh Come on back

Ohh Jack

Oh come on back

He wanted to use me

 

I didn't understand

 

I said I want my upright man
