Thanks to mboruza for these lyrics.

This old house once knew its children 
This old house once knew its wife 
This old house was home and comfort 
As they fought the storms of life 

This old house once rang with laughter 
This old house heard many shouts 
Now it trembles in the darkness 
When the lightning walks about 

Ain't gonna need this house no longer 
Ain't gonna need this house no more 
Ain't got time to fix the shingles 
Ain't got time to fix the floor 
Ain't got time to oil the hinges 
Nor to mend the window pain 
Ain't gonna need this house no longer 
He's getting ready to meet the saints 

This old house is gettin' shaky 
This old house is gettin' old 
This old house has seen the rain 
This old house has seen the cold 

Oh his knees are gettin' chilly 
But he feels no fear or pain 
'Cause he sees an angel peepin' 
Through a broken window pane 

Ain't gonna need this house no longer 
Ain't gonna need this house no more 
Ain't got time to fix the shingles 
Ain't got time to fix the floor 
Ain't got time to oil the hinges 
Nor to mend the window pain 
Ain't gonna need this house no longer 
He's getting ready to meet the saints 

This old house is gettin' shaky 
This old house is gettin' old 
This old house has seen the rain 
This old house has seen the cold 

Oh his knees are gettin' chilly 
But he feels no fear or pain 
'Cause he sees an angel peepin' 
Through a broken window pane 

Ain't gonna need this house no longer 
Ain't gonna need this house no more 
Ain't got time to fix the shingles 
Ain't got time to fix the floor 
Ain't got time to oil the hinges 
Nor to mend the window pain 
Ain't gonna need this house no longer 
He's getting ready to meet the saints 
(repeat)
