[00:00:00] Ode To The Little Brown Shack Out Back - Billy Edd Wheeler

[00:00:02] Written By：Billy Edd Wheeler

[00:00:09] They passed an ordinance in the town

[00:00:11] They said we'd have to tear it down

[00:00:13] That little old shack out back

[00:00:15] So dear to me

[00:00:18] Though the health department said

[00:00:20] It's day was over and dead

[00:00:22] It will stand forever in my memory

[00:00:26] Don't let 'em tear that

[00:00:29] Little brown building down

[00:00:31] Don't let 'em tear that

[00:00:33] Precious building down

[00:00:35] Don't let 'em tear that

[00:00:38] Little brown building down

[00:00:40] For there's not another like it

[00:00:42] In the country or the town

[00:00:47] It was not so long ago that

[00:00:50] I went tripping through the snow

[00:00:52] Out to that house behind

[00:00:54] My old hound dog

[00:00:56] Where I'd sit me down to rest

[00:00:58] Like a snowbird on his nest

[00:01:01] And read the Sears and Roebuck catalog

[00:01:08] I would hum a happy tune

[00:01:10] Peeping through the quarter moon

[00:01:12] As my daddy's kin had done before

[00:01:16] It was in that quiet spot

[00:01:19] Daily cares could be forgot

[00:01:21] It gave the same relief

[00:01:23] To rich and poor

[00:01:25] Don't let 'em tear that

[00:01:27] Little brown building down

[00:01:29] Don't let 'em tear that

[00:01:32] Precious building down

[00:01:33] Don't let 'em tear that

[00:01:36] Little brown building down

[00:01:38] For there's not another like it

[00:01:40] In the country or the town

[00:01:48] Now it was not a castle fair

[00:01:50] But I could dream my future there

[00:01:52] Build my castles to

[00:01:54] The yellow jacket's drone

[00:01:56] I could orbit around the sun

[00:01:59] Fight with General Washington

[00:02:01] Or be a King upon a golden throne

[00:02:05] It wasn't fancy built at all

[00:02:07] It had newspapers on the wall

[00:02:10] It was air conditioned

[00:02:11] In the wintertime

[00:02:14] It was just a humble hut

[00:02:16] But it's door was never shut

[00:02:18] And a man could get inside

[00:02:20] Without a dime

[00:02:22] Don't let 'em tear that

[00:02:24] Little brown building down

[00:02:26] Don't let 'em tear that

[00:02:29] Precious building down

[00:02:31] Don't let 'em tear that

[00:02:33] Little brown building down

[00:02:35] For there's not another like it

[00:02:37] In the country or the town
