A House Of Gold

Hank Williams

Lyrics 

People steal, they cheat and lie
 For wealth and what it will buy
 But don't they know on the Judgment 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 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 good and true?
 Sinner, hear me when I say
 Fall down on your knees and pray
 For I'd rather be in a deep, dark grave
 And know that my poor soul was saved
 Than live in this world in a house of gold
 And deny my God and doom my soul
