Hank Williams Lyrics

Album: I Saw the Light

A HOUSE OF GOLD Lyrics

House of Gold


People steal, they cheat and lie

For wealth and what it will buy

Don't they know on the judgement 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 lose my soul

What good is gold and silver, too

If your heart's not good and true

Sinner hear me when I say

Fall down upon 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 lose my soul

And deny my God and lose my soul
