In the Middle of the House
The railroad comes through the middle of the house
The railroad comes through the middle of the house
The trains all come through the middle of the house
Since the company bought the land
They let us live in the front of the house
They let us live in the back
But there ain't no living in the middle of the house
Cause that's the railroad track
When a bill collector comes to the house
he knocks and bangs on the door
So we sit him right down in the middle of the house
And he never comes back no more
No, he never comes back no more
The railroad comes through the middle of the house
The railroad comes through the middle of the house
It comes and goes through the middle of the house
And the trains are all on time here comes on 5:09
The railroad comes through the middle of the house
In and out of the middle of the house
Right smack dab in the middle of the house
Where the parlour used to be
There's a great big door in the front of the house
A little old door in the back
But we cannot have doors in the middle of the house
Cause that's the railroad track
A relative came to visit the house
He liked to scream and fuss
So we sit him right down in the middle of the house
And he never bothered us
No, he never bothered us
The railroad comes through the middle of the house
The railroad comes through the middle of the house
It comes and goes through the middle of the house
Since the company bought the land
We're singing this song from the middle of the house.
The railroad comes through the middle of the house
The trains all come through the middle of the house
Since the company bought the land
They let us live in the front of the house
They let us live in the back
But there ain't no living in the middle of the house
Cause that's the railroad track
When a bill collector comes to the house
he knocks and bangs on the door
So we sit him right down in the middle of the house
And he never comes back no more
No, he never comes back no more
The railroad comes through the middle of the house
The railroad comes through the middle of the house
It comes and goes through the middle of the house
And the trains are all on time here comes on 5:09
The railroad comes through the middle of the house
In and out of the middle of the house
Right smack dab in the middle of the house
Where the parlour used to be
There's a great big door in the front of the house
A little old door in the back
But we cannot have doors in the middle of the house
Cause that's the railroad track
A relative came to visit the house
He liked to scream and fuss
So we sit him right down in the middle of the house
And he never bothered us
No, he never bothered us
The railroad comes through the middle of the house
The railroad comes through the middle of the house
It comes and goes through the middle of the house
Since the company bought the land
We're singing this song from the middle of the house.
