(Billy Ed Wheeler)
They past an ordinance in the
town
Said we'd have to tear it down
That little brown shack out back so dear to
me
Though the health department said
It's day was over and dead
It will stand forever
in my memory
Don't let 'em tear that little brown building down
Don't let 'em
tear that little brown building down
Don't let 'em tear that little brown building down
There's not another like it in the country or the town
It was not too long ago
That
I went tripping through the snow
Out to that house behind my old hound dog
Where I'd sit
me down to rest
Like a snow bird on her nest
And read the Sears and Roebuck
catalog
I would hum a happy tune
Peeping through the quarter moon
Just like my
Pappy's kin had done before
It was in that quiet pot
Daily cares could be forgot
And
it gave the same relief to rich and poor
It was not a castle fair
I could build my
future there
Build castles to the yellow jacket's drone
I could orbit round the
sun
Fight with General Washington
Or be a king upon his own throne
It wasn't
fancy built at all
Had newspapers on the wall
It was air conditioned in the
wintertime
It was just a humble hut
But it's door was never shut
And a man could get
inside without a dime
