Sarah Jarosz - Come On Up To The House

Well, the Moon is broken and the sky is cracked
Come on up to the house
The only things that you can see is all that you lack
Come on up to the house
All your cryin' don't do you no good
Come on up to the house
Come down off the cross, we could use the wood
Come on up to the house

You've got to come on up to the house
Come on up to the house
The world is not my home
I'm just a-passin' through
Come on up to the house

There is no light in the tunnel, no irons in the fire
Come on up to the house
And you're singin' lead soprano in the junkman's choir
Come on up to the house

Don't life seem nasty, brutish and short
Come on up to the house
Well the seas are stormy, you can't find no port
Come on up to the house

Yeah, you've got to come on up to the house
Come on up to the house
The world is not my home
I'm just a-passin' through
Come on up to the house

There's nothin' in the world that you can do
Come on up to the house
You've been whipped by the forces that are inside of you
Come on up to the house
Well you're high on the top of your mountain of woe
Come on up to the house
And you know you should surrender but you can't let go
Come on up to the house

You've got to come on up to the house
Come on up to the house
The world is not my home
I'm just a-passin' through
Come on up to the house, yeah
You've got to come on up to the house
Come on up to the house
The world is not my home
I'm just a-passin' through
Come on up to the house, yeah, ooh-ooh
