Big Old House

Mama, since you've gone away,

Now my sister and my brother say better throw me away,

Now papa, doesn't even say,

Even the cat, and the dog, wanna run away.

I've got this big old house,

Where the entry is unknown,

I've got this big old house,

Where my exit is unknown.

Mama, since you've gone away,

Now my sister and my brother say better throw me away,

Now papa, doesn't even say,

'Cos there's no sun to melt my snow away.

My licence to be free, will no longer be,

I'm jailed behind the prison bars of their belief.
