House of Stone (Music/Lyrics by Rich Deans)

I’m gonna build me a house of stone
I’m gonna live in it all alone
Complete with a concrete floor
I’m not gonna build a door
No one invited company
To bring me heartache and misery
Don’t try to call me don’t even knock
All the windows are solid rock

I’m gonna build me a house of stone
I’m gonna build me a house of stone
I’m gonna build me a house of stone
I’m gonna build me a house of stone

I tried to build me a house of glass
That was clearly not meant to last
So I built me a house of brick
It fell apart like a house of sticks
Each time I raised a beam
Somebody destroyed that dream
This time when I build my home
I’m gonna build me a house of stone

I’m gonna build me a house of stone
I’m gonna build me a house of stone
I’m gonna build me a house of stone
I’m gonna build me a house of stone

I built my castles on love and trust
And watched them crumble into dust
All my good intentions
My sweat and blood
All got buried under rock and mud

I’m gonna build me a house of stone
I’m gonna live in it all alone
Complete with a concrete floor
I’m not gonna build a door
No one invited company
To bring me heartache and misery
Don’t try to call me don’t even knock
All the windows are solid rock

I’m gonna build me a house of stone
I’m gonna build me a house of stone
I’m gonna build me a house of stone
I’m gonna build me a house of stone
