I may be old and I may be bent 
But I had the money till it all got spent 
I had the money till they made me pay 
Then I had the sense to be on my way 
I had to stay in the underground 
I was in the house when the house burned down 

  Eb
I was in the house when the house burned down 
  Gm
I met the man with the thorny crown 
  F
I helped Him carry his cross through town 
  Gm                        F        Bb
I was in the house when the house burned down 

I was in the house when the house burned down 
I met the man with the thorny crown 
I helped Him carry his cross through town 
I was in the house when the house burned down 

I had the shit till it all got smoked 
I kept the promise till the vow got broke 
I had to drink from the lovin' cup 
I stood on the banks till the river rose up 
I saw the bride in her wedding gown 
I was in the house when the house burned down
