The House That Jack Built

This is the house that Jack built, y'all Remember this house This was the land that he worked by hand It was the dream of an upright man There was a room that was filled with love It was a love that I was proud of This was a life of a love that I planned Of a love and same old love Of the house that Jack built Remember this house There was the fence that held our love There was the gate that he walked out of This is my heart, it is turned to stone This is the house, it ain't no home This is the love that I destroyed In a dream that I thought was love In the house that jack built I'm gonn' remember this house Oh, ohh, what's the use of crying? You know I brought it on myself, there's no denying But it seems awful funny that I didn't understand Until I lost my upright man Up on the hill There's a big plan still In the house that Jack built Before I remember this house Listen, I got the house, I got the car I got the rug, I got the rack But I ain't got Jack And I want my Jack back I turned my back on Jack He said he wasn't coming back I turned my back on Jack He said he wasn't coming back Ohh, Jack You ought to come on back Ohh, Jack You ought to come on back To the one that you built Is the same one you built You ought to come on back, baby Oh come back I didn't understand till I lost my upright man Come on back, Jack, You ought to come on home now
