House Of Gold

House Of Gold - Patty Griffin

Written by：Hank Williams Sr.

People steal they cheat and lie

For wealth and what it will buy

Don't they know on the judgment day

Gold and silver will melt away

I'd rather be in a deep dark grave

And know that my poor soul was saved

Than to live in this world in a house of gold

And deny my god and doom my soul

What good is gold and silver too

In your heart's not good and true

Sinner hear me when I say

Fall down on your knees and pray

I'd rather be in a deep dark grave

And know that my poor soul was saved

Than to live in this world in a house of gold

And deny my god and doom my soul
