House of Gold

People cheat, they steal and lie For wealth and what that wealth will buy But don't they know on the Judgment Day 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 Than deny my God, and doom my soul What good is gold, and silver too When your heart's not good and true So sinner, hear me when I say Fall down on your knees and pray And 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 Than deny my God, and doom my soul Jesus died there on the cross So this world would not be lost Sinner hear now what I say For some day you'll have to pay And 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 Than deny my God, and doom my soul --- House of Gold - Willie Nelson
