House Of Cash Songtext / Lyric

George Strait & Patty Loveless



(George)

Well, the house of Cash just burned down

All the way to the cold hard ground

The doctors came from all over town

To see the memories scattereed all around.



(Patty)

Then the stars came out by the light of day

And they heard their old friend passed away

That yard looked like a funeral hall

Without the pies and casseroles.






Chorus: (Both)

Well, it's goodbye Johnny, goodbye June

And goodbye fancy livin' room

(George)

Well, no one sleeps in Cash's bed

Except the man in black and the woman he wed

(Both)

And the ring of fire comes full circle

And the ring of fire comes all the way 'round.



(Patty)

Man if those ashes in the pool could talk

To the anchorman out on the walk

(George)

I bet they'd be happy to announce

But there won't be no yard sale now.



Chorus: (Both)

Well, it's goodbye Johnny, goodbye June

And goodbye fancy livin' room

(George)

Well, no one sleeps in Cash's bed

Except the man in black and the woman he wed

(Both)

And the ring of fire comes full circle

And the ring of fire comes all the way 'round.



And the ring of fire comes full circle

And the ring of fire comes all the way 'round...
