Tim O'Brien - A House of Gold lyrics
People steal, they cheat and lie
 For wealth and what it will buy
 Don't they know on judgment day
 Gold and silver will melt away?
 I'd rather be in a deep, dark grave
 And know that my first soul was saved
 Than to live in this world in a house of gold
 And deny my God and doom my soul

 What good is gold and silver, too?
 In your hearts not good and true
 Sinner, hear me when I say
 Fall down on your knees and pray
 I'd rather be in a deep, dark grave
 And know that my first soul was saved
 And to live in this world in a house of gold
 And deny my God and doom my soul
