I built this house with my own two hands I laid every brick and I worked the land For years it has stood through the wind and rain The storms, they would come, but the house remained But this time, this time, this time, it was too much to take The walls, the walls, the walls, the walls started to shake Now there's no escape from the rain No escape from the rain, no escape from the rain Now there's no escape from the rain No escape from the rain, no escape from the rain Oh, the water came through the walls and floor And I closed up the hatch and I locked those doors Well the splintering wood made an awful sound And I covered my head as it all came down This time, this time, this time, it was too much to take The walls, the walls, the walls, the walls started to shake Now there's no escape from the rain No escape from the rain, no escape from the rain Now there's no escape from the rain No escape from the rain, no escape from the rain This time, this time, this time, it was too much to take The walls, the walls, the walls, the walls started to shake Now there's no escape from the rain No escape from the rain, no escape from the rain Now there's no escape from the rain No escape from the rain, no escape from the rain This time, this time, this time, it was too much to take The walls, the walls, the walls, the walls started to shake Now there's no escape from the rain No escape from the rain, no escape from the rain Now there's no escape from the rain No escape from the rain, no escape from the rain
