A House Of Gold lyrics

A HOUSE OF GOLD
(Hank Williams)
« © `50 Fred Rose Music »
WITH MELBA MONTGOMERY

People steal they cheat and lie
For wealth and what it will buy
But don`t they know on the Judgement Day
That 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
If your heart`s not pure and true
Sinner hear me when I say
Fall down on your knees and pray
I`d rather be in a deep dark grave...
