The Roof Is Leaking |
| The roof is leaking and the wind is howling |
| Kids are crying 'cos the sheets are so cold |
| I woke this morning found my hands were frozen |
| I’ve tried to fix the fire, but you know the damn thing’s too old |
| It’s been months now, since we heard from our Mary, |
| I wonder if she ever made the coast |
| She and her young man, they both moved out there |
| But I sure hope they write, just to let us know |
| And me, I’m getting stronger by the minute |
| My wife’s expecting, but I hope she can wait |
| 'Cos this winter looks like it’s gonna be another bad one |
| But Spring’ll soon be here, |
| Oh God I hope it’s not late |
| Ma and Pa lived here, and theirs before them |
| Tried their hardest to make it a home |
| Seems so long now since they passed over |
| Hope my children’ll try to make it their own |
| The roof is leaking and the wind is howling |
| Kids are crying, 'cos the sheets are so cold |
| I woke this morning found my hands were frozen |
| I’ve tried to fix the fire, but you know the damn thing’s too old |
| And me, I’m getting stronger by the minute |
| My wife’s expecting, but I hope she can wait |
| 'Cos this winter looks like it’s gonna be another bad one |
| But Spring’ll soon be here, |
| Oh God I hope it’s not late |
