the grand tour
Step right up, come on in If you'd like to take the grand tour Of the lonely house that once was home sweet home I have nothing here to sell you Just some things that I will tell you Some things I know will chill you to the bone Over there, sits the chair Where she'd bring the paper to me sit down on my knee and whisper "Oh, I love you" But now she's gone forever And this old house will never Be the same without the love that we once knew Straight ahead, that's the bed, where we'd lie in love together And Lord knows we had a good thing going here See her picture on the table, don't it look like she'd be able Just to touch me and say "good morning dear" There's her ring, all her things, and her clothes are in the closet Where she left them when she tore my world apart As you leave you see the nursery, oh she left me without mercy Taking nothing but our baby and my heart Step right up, come on in, come on in
