House Down The Block lyrics

The house my family lives in just down the block Many times I passed there but I never stopped I go on all alone a wishin' I could be in that house down the block with my family When we meet upon the street I just bow my head They don't know how often I wish that I was dead To our name I brought the shame but still I long to be In that house down the block with my family [ steel - piano - fiddle ] When Gabriel blows his trumpet and time will be no more Then mem'ries fade my daddy's faith I'll walk up to the door The tears that fall won't start at all and God will let me be In that house down the block with my family
