I knew a man named Jack who built a little shack
A house he could call his home
Love came a calling
soon he was falling
He didn't have to live alone.
Well her name was Jill and she made
Jack feel
Like a king in a mansion on a hill
And for a while they loved in style
Living in the house that Jack built.
Chorus
It was a red bricked shack on a country acre
Flower boxes in the window sill
Picket fences picture
perfect
Every room was filled with love love sweet sweet love.
Living in the house that Jack built.
Well along came Joe he had a lot of dough
He made from a moonshine still
He caught Jill's eye he made Jack
cry
Now Joe's living in the house that Jack built.
It was a red bricked shack on a
country acre
Flower boxes in the window sill
Picket fences picture perfect
Every room was filled with love love sweet
sweet love.
Living in the house that Jack built.
Love love sweet sweet love living in the
house that Jack built
It was a red bricked shack on a country acre
Flower boxes in the window sill
Picket fences
picture perfect
Every room was filled with love love sweet sweet love.
Living in the house that Jack built.
Now who's that guy in love with the girl ?
Living in the house that Jack built.
