House On A Hill Songtext / Lyric

House on a Hill (Aaron Neville)



Tired of livin in a room without curtains

Tired of sleepin on the floor without a bed

Said if I can't have the good things in life

You know I might as well be dead



I want a house on a hill

Chorus Tell me wouldn't that be a thrill

A Cadillac and a pool

Now wouldn't that be cool



Tired of wearin them poor mans shoes

And punchin the clock everyday

I'm gonna buy myself a ticket on a choo choo train

I'm gonna make my get away






Chorus

Now I got a woman. Says she's crazy about me

That's why she's with me every morning, yall

About half past three

She says come on get up, and get on out the door

Because today is only Wednesday and ya got

Thursday, Friday to go



Chorus Intro x4 with lead



Here comes my boss, All up in my face

He says you know. You better do a good job

Cause you can be replaced



Well lord and I gotta take it

Because the money I need

Because I got you to cry on

And four lil mouths to feed



Chorus x2 and out
