A house not a home was a picture satin painted
MIb SIb
For sweet little sister and me
Our daddy would frown while mother was praying
FA SIb
His heart was so hardened that he would not believe
SIb7 MIb SIb
In anger he'd swear his voice cold and loud
SIb FA
His Sundays were spent out with the gamblin crowd
SIb MIb SIb
I've never seen my daddy inside a house of God
FA SIb
For Satin held his hand down the path of sin he trod
SOLO
SIb
Not long ago our circle was broken
MIb SIb
When God called on mother one night
SIb
In a voice sweet and low her last words were spoken
FA SIb
Asking our daddy to raise her children right
SIb7 MIb SIb
The angels rejoiced in heaven last night
SIb FA
I heard my daddy praying dear God make it right
SIb MIb SIb
He was smiling and singing with tears in his eyes
SIb FA SIb
While mother with the angels rejoiced last night
FA MIb SIb
While mother with the angels rejoiced last night
