The Roof Is Leaking lyrics
Song information
Artist: Phil Collins Album: Face Value
Lyrics
The roof is leaking and the wind is howling Kids are crying 'cos the sheets are so cold Woke this morning found my hands were frozen I've tried to fix the fire, but you know the damn thing's too old
It's been months now, since we heard from our mary I wonder if she ever made the coast Well she and her young man, they both moved out there I sure hope they write, just to let us know
And me, I'm getting stronger by the minute My wife's expecting, but I hope she can wait 'Cos this winter looks like it's gonna be another bad one But spring'll soon be here Ohh.... but I hope it's not late
Ma and pa lived here, and theirs before them They tried their hardest to make it a home Seems so long now since they passed over Hope my children try to make it their own
Well my roof is leaking and the wind is howling The kids are crying, 'cos the sheets are so cold Woke this morning and my hands were frozen Oh I've tried to fix the fire, but you know the damn thing's too old
But me, oh I'm getting stronger by the minute My wife's expecting, but I hope she can wait 'Cos this winter looks like it's gonna be another bad one But spring'll soon be here Ohh.. god I hope it's not late
