Can You Build Your House lyrics

Song information

Artist: Little Jimmy Dickens
Album: Comes Callin'

Lyrics

I know you can take her if you want her
For she's always been temptation's slave
But will you be happy when you won her
When you build your house on another man's grave
So if you have a good sight I'm appealing
In your hands you've got my life to take or say
And your victory maybe sweet for a moment
Can you you build your house on another man's grave
[ fiddle - steel ]
There's been so many others just like you
Who didn't want a girl just what she gave
So before you take her be sure your conscience
Will let you build your house on another man's grave
So if you have a good sight..
