GAn old log house and it half-built
A Chome made bed Gjust one old quilt
A CHoly G7Bible that Cma left to Gme
D7Makes me as rich as rich can be
GMy friends have gold yet they are sad
CThey own the best Gthat can be had
CWhile I G7just live Cfrom day to Gday
D7I know the Lord will make a Gway
My corn crib's filled with nothing but cobs
CCause corn won't grow on Gthese poor knobs
CThe sun's too G7hot and the Crain won't Gfall
D7There's a cloud in the sky but it's too small
GMy housetop leaks and I get damp
CHere on this earth I'm Gcalled a tramp
But CI can G7smile and Cfeel so Gproud
D7I know my home's beyond the Gclouds
My old hound dog is growing thin
Like Cme he only Ghas two friends
I'm Csure G7that if Cwe only Gknew
D7He longs for heaven like me and you
GMy shoes are thin my feet get cold
CBut I trudge on to Gmake my goal
For CI can G7smile and Cfeel so Gproud
D7I know my home's beyond the Gclouds
CI know my Ghome's D7beyond the Gclouds
