        This house is your house, 
        You can do what you want here. 
        You can sleep, you can eat, 
        You can talk or retreat, 
        You can sing, you can laugh
        And you don't have to ask,
        This house is your house. 
      This house is your house.
        You can do what you want here.
        You can sprawl in a chair, 
        Run your hands through my hair,
        Read a book, come or go,
        Ask me things I don't know, 
        This house is your house.
       This house is your house.
        You can do what you want here. 
        It is cozy and good 
        And the hod's full of wood. 
        When you're ready to leave
        I will bid you godspeed, 
        And you know where I keep the key,
        This house is your house.
