++If I Go I'm Goin'



this house
she’s holding secrets
i got my change behind the bed

in a coffee can,
i throw my nickels in
just incase i have to leave

and i will go if you ask me to
i will stay if you dare
and if i go i’m goin shameless
i’ll let my hunger take me there

this house
she’s quite the talker
she creeks and moans
she keeps me up

and the photographs
know i’m a liar
they just laugh as i burn her down

and i will go if you ask me to
i will stay if you dare
and if i go i’m goin on fire
let my anger take me there

the shingles man they’re shaking
the back door’s burning through
this house she’s quite the keeper
quite the keeper of you

i will go if you ask me to
i will stay if you dare
and if i go, i’m goin crazy
i’ll let my darlin take me there
