House of Gold Songtext
von George Jones

People steal, they cheat, and lie
For wealth and what it will buy
But, don′t they know, on the Judgement Day
That gold, and silver, will melt away


I'd rather be, in a deep, dark grave
And know, that my poor soul was saved
Than to live in this world, in a house of gold
And deny my God, and doom my soul

What good is gold and silver too
If your heart′s not pure and true?
Sinner, hear me when I say
Fall down on your knees and pray

I'd rather be, in a deep, dark grave
And know, that my poor soul was saved
Than to live in this world, in a house of gold
And deny my God, and doom my soul
