Jones, George - Two Story House Lyrics

Wow 😮 what a great song 🎤🎤

One of my favorite of theirs.

Maybe one of the best duets of all times.

We always wanted a big two story house
Back when we lived in that little two room shack
We wanted fame and fortune and we'd live life the way the rich folks do
We knew somehow we'd make it, together me and you

With dreams and hopes of things to come we worked and never stopped
Not much time for you and me, we had to reach the top
We bought that big two story house and soon became the envy of the town
With all our work behind us we'd finally settled down

Now we live (yes we live) in a two story house whoa, what splendor
But there's no love about

I've got my story and I've got mine, too
How sad it is, we now live in a two story house

The house is filled with rare antiques, there's marble on the floor
Beauty all around us like we've never seen before
There's chandeliers in every room, imported silks and satin all about
We filled the house with everything but somehow left love out

Now we live (yes we live) in a two story house, oh what splendor
But there's no love about

I've got my story and I've got mine, too
How sad it is, we now live in a two story house
How sad it is, we now live in a two story house.

Songwriters: Dave Lindsey / Glenn Tubb / Tammy Wynette

These two made their mark, and won't be forgotten.

Beauty all around us like we've never seen before

The house is filled with rare antiques, there's marble on the floor

How sad it is, we now live, in a two story house

I've got my story, and I've got mine to

Oh what splendor, but there's no love about

Now we live in a two story house

With all our work behind us, we'd finally settle down

We bought that big two story house and soon became the envy of the town

Not much time for you and me, we had to reach the top

With dreams and hopes of things to come, we worked and never stopped

We knew somehow we'd make it, together me and you

We wanted fame and fortune, and we'd live like the rich folks do

Back when we lived in that little two room shack

We always wanted a big two story house

we live in a two story house still loving him for ever

i love this song

My favorites
I met George twice when I was a little girl. I loved him. I still love him and hope hope to sing with him and Jesus when I go to my actual planet, heaven

I met him in Lafayette Louisiana and A few years later in Eldorado Arkansas , where I was born in 1970. Yes my photo is new. I look younger than 47. Lol

Classic Country is the best!!!!!!!!!

Am I the only one who hears "The Itsy-Bitsy Spider" in the verses? XD

Uh yeah

Listen to the melody, they're actually quite similar.

I am so glad I had the radio on tonight otherwise I may have never heard this wonderful song.

@Wilfred Heggart What military junk? I chose to serve and I am proud of it. You can hate the war but if you don't support the military go take your military bashing somewhere else.

@bigoldinosaur just dont want you dead devon

+bigoldinosaur can i join

+bigoldinosaur devon sorry

yes i do i wear red and give quaters for poppies

Too much focus on the material. Love can thrive in two room shack, something our ancestors knew and appreciated. RIP Possum

Ahhhh real country music.
