Loretta Lynn - This Old House lyrics

Oh, if this old house could talk What a story it would tell It would tell about the good times And the bad times as well It would tell about the love That lived and died inside these walls And the sound of little footsteps Runnin' up and down the hall Oh, if this old house could talk It would break my heart in two I couldn't stand to be reminded Of all the things we used to do There's no love in this old house no more So I got it up for sale Why, if this old house could talk What a story it would tell Oh, if this old house could talk I know what it would say I'm as lonesome as you are And I feel nonempty everyday Well, I even miss the babies Who built me up to feel this way Why, if this old house could talk Lord, I know what it would say If this old house could talk What a story it would tell We built this home together And with love we drove each nail Take me in your arms and hold me 'Cause we've been apart too long Why if this old house could talk All it would say is welcome home
