A house not a home was a picture satin painted
Eb Bb
For sweet little sister and me
Our daddy would frown while mother was praying
F Bb
His heart was so hardened that he would not believe
Bb7 Eb Bb
In anger he'd swear his voice cold and loud
Bb F
His Sundays were spent out with the gamblin crowd
Bb Eb Bb
I've never seen my daddy inside a house of God
F Bb
For Satin held his hand down the path of sin he trod
G O
Bb
Not long ago our circle was broken
Eb Bb
When God called on mother one night
Bb
In a voice sweet and low her last words were spoken
F Bb
Asking our daddy to raise her children right
Bb7 Eb Bb
The angels rejoiced in heaven last night
Bb F
I heard my daddy praying dear God make it right
Bb Eb Bb
He was smiling and singing with tears in his eyes
Bb F Bb
While mother with the angels rejoiced last night
F Eb Bb
While mother with the angels rejoiced last night
