this house
she’s holding secrets
i got my change behind the bed
in a coffee can,
i throw my nickels in
just in case i have to leave
and i will go if you ask me to
i will stay if you dare
and if i go i’m goin shameless
i’ll let my hunger take me there
this house
she’s quite the talker
she creaks and moans
she keeps me up
and the photographs
know i’m a liar
they just laugh as i burn her down
and i will go if you ask me to
i will stay if you dare
and if i go i’m goin on fire
let my anger take me there
the shingles man they’re shaking
the back door’s burning through
this house she’s quite the keeper
quite the keeper of you
i will go if you ask me to
i will stay if you dare
and if i go, i’m goin crazy
i’ll let my darlin take me there
