(Warren Zevon)
|
I had the shit till it all got smoked
|
I kept the promise till the vow got broke
|
I had to drink from the lovin' cup
|
I stood on the banks till the river rose up
|
I saw the bride in her wedding gown
|
I was in the house when the house burned down
|
|
I may be old and I may be bent
|
But I had the money till it all got spent
|
I had the money till they made me pay
|
Then I had the sense to be on my way
|
I had to stay in the underground
|
I was in the house when the house burned down
|
|
I was in the house when the house burned down
|
I met the man with the thorny crown
|
I helped Him carry his cross through town
|
I was in the house when the house burned down
|
|
I was in the house when the house burned down
|
I met the man with the thorny crown
|
I helped Him carry his cross through town
|
I was in the house when the house burned down
|
|
I had the shit till it all got smoked
|
I kept the promise till the vow got broke
|
I had to drink from the lovin' cup
|
I stood on the banks till the river rose up
|
I saw the bride in her wedding gown
|
I was in the house when the house burned down
