House Down the Block

                                  The house my family lives in just down the block

Many times I passed there but I never stopped

I go on all alone a wishin' 

I could be in that house down the block 

With my family

When we meet upon the street 

I just bow my head

They don't know how often 

I wish that I was dead

To our name I brought the shame 

But still I long to be

In that house down the block with my family



When Gabriel blows his trumpet 

And time will be no more

Then memories fade my daddy's faith 

I'll walk up to the door

The tears that fall won't start at all 

And God will let me be

In that house down the block with my family
