Porter Wagoner feat. Skeeter Davis Lyrics
"Sorrow's Tearing Down The House"

(Mel Tillis - Kent Westberry)

I met you and we married we planned our future well
Built our home on happiness then suddenly it fell
It wasn't long thereafter our love began to tilt
Sorrow's tearing down the house that happiness once built.

First came the weekly parties that never seemed to end
Then came the heartaches brought by a so-called friend
I guess that I'm as much to blame while we share the guilt
Sorrow's tearing down the house that happiness once built.

First came the weekly parties that never seemed to end
Then came the heartaches brought by a so-called friend
I guess that I'm as much to blame while we share the guilt
Sorrow's tearing down the house that happiness once built...
