Old House Blues

◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇
A funny take on living in an old house (which we do).
Let your face me masked
I got This Old House Blues
This Old House Blues
Anyone who owns one, might deny and disabuse
But they can’t fool me, they’ve got This Old House Blues
It became quite clear, that it was time to insulate
Cuz I hate being cold, and our carbon footprint wasn’t great
Melding old construction with new technology
Makes you feel you’re in the field of archeology
If money was no object, I’d not be sharing space with tools
I’d be in the finished basement swimming in our endless pool
Instead we’re fighting ice dams, but I’m sure there’ll be a day
We own a great historic home and laugh about the way
We had this Old House Blues
This Old House Blues
Anyone who owns one always pays his dues
Anyone whose had one’s had this Old House Blues.
I got this Old House Blues
This Old House Blues
Anyone who owns one, no matter how enthused
Anyone who has, has had this Old House Blues
