Two Story House Lyrics - Singles - George Jones

George Jones & Tammy Wynette 

(George) 

We always wanted a big two story house 

Back when we lived in that little two room shack 

(Both) 

We wanted fame and fortune 

And we'd live life the way the rich folks do 

We knew some how we'd make it, 

Together me and you 

(Tammy) 

With dreams and hopes of things to come 

We worked and never stopped 

Not much time for you and me 

We had to reach the top

(Both) 

We bought that big two story house 

And soon became the envy of the town 

With all our work behind us 

We'd finally settled down 

Now we live (yes we live) in a two story house 

(George) 

Whoa, what splendor 

(Both) 

But there's no love about 

(Tammy) 

I've got my story 

(George) 

And I've got mine, too 

(Both) 

How sad it is, we now live, in a two story house

The house is filled with rare antiques 

There's marble on the floor 

Beauty all around us 

Like we've never seen before 

There's chandeliers in every room 

Imported silks and satin all about 

We filled the house with everything 

But somehow left love out 

Now we live (yes we live) in a two story house 

(George) 

Oh what splendor 

(Both) 

But there's no love about 

(Tammy) 

I've got my story 

(George) 

And I've got mine, too 

(Both) 

How sad it is, we now live, in a two story house 

How sad it is, we now live, in a two story house...
