| I cover ground and
|
| Get around a lot these days
|
| And I meet a lotta people, too
|
| An' if it takes a broken heart
|
| To know one, well
|
| I’m seein' lotsa shades of blue
|
| (shades of blue)
|
| The wealthy part of town
|
| Done got the Yuletide bug
|
| And the decoration store does fine
|
| But sometimes on a dark and
|
| Country backwoods road
|
| I pass a little shack that shines
|
| (shack that shines)
|
| It doesn’t matter much
|
| What kind of house you got
|
| As long as it’s a happy home
|
| Or if your lover’s love
|
| Ain’t burnin' blue flame hot
|
| As long as you don’t feel alone
|
| (feel alone)
|
| What kind of house you got
|
| Won’t make it real or not
|
| What kind of car you drive
|
| Won’t keep your love alive
|
| What kind of house you got
|
| Won’t make it real or not
|
| What kind of car you drive
|
| Won’t keep your love alive
|
| The stairway up to heaven’s
|
| Made of rough hewn boards
|
| And Christ is on a hard nail throne
|
| I wonder, stuck in traffic with a low fuel light
|
| If there’s time to change the road we’re on
|
| (road we’re on)
|
| It doesn’t matter much
|
| What kind of house you got
|
| As long as it’s a happy home
|
| Or if your lover’s love
|
| Ain’t burnin' blue flame hot
|
| As long as you don’t feel alone
|
| It doesn’t matter much
|
| What kind of house you got
|
| As long as it’s a happy home
|
| Or if your lover’s love
|
| Ain’t burnin' blue flame hot
|
| As long as you don’t feel alone
|
| (feel alone) |
