《That’s All The Lumber You Sent》歌词

[00:00:00] That's All The Lumber You Sent - Kathy Mattea

[00:00:09] Said a friend to a friend one day

[00:00:11] Was a man who passed away

[00:00:13] St Peter met him at the gate

[00:00:17] Pete said: "Walk with me if you will

[00:00:20] I'll take you to the house you built"

[00:00:22] Man said: "I can't wait "

[00:00:26] Passed a mansion made of stone

[00:00:28] But with each new house he's shown

[00:00:30] They get smaller by degrees

[00:00:34] Stopped in front of a two room shack

[00:00:37] Pete said hope you're happy with that

[00:00:39] Man said: "How can this be "

[00:00:42] Pete said:

[00:00:43] That's all the lumber--that's all the lumber

[00:00:47] That's all the lumber you sent

[00:00:51] Looks like the builder--man he's got your number

[00:00:56] That's all the lumber you sent

[00:01:00] (intro)

[00:01:15] Man didn't know what to say

[00:01:17] Poor guy was blown away

[00:01:19] Said: "you mean this is what I deserve "

[00:01:23] Pete said: "I'm afraid it's so

[00:01:25] It's too late but now you know

[00:01:27] Shoulda done better work"

[00:01:32] Said: You mean not lie and cheat

[00:01:34] And helpin' old ladies across the street

[00:01:36] Pete says: Well that's a start

[00:01:39] Remember that man back in that great big house

[00:01:42] He found out early what it's all about

[00:01:45] Built that place with his heart--as for you

[00:01:49] That's all the lumber--that's all the lumber

[00:01:53] That's all the lumber you sent

[00:01:57] Looks like the builder--man he's got your number

[00:02:02] That's all the lumber you sent

[00:02:08] What if that man was me

[00:02:10] And I failed that miserably

[00:02:12] You're showin' me things I don't wanna see

[00:02:17] (intro)

[00:02:36] St Peter if you can

[00:02:38] Send me back to earth again

[00:02:40] Is that somethin' you can do

[00:02:43] Pete said: It ain't up to me

[00:02:46] If it was I'd like to see

[00:02:48] How you plan to improve

[00:02:52] Said: I'd love God and fellow man

[00:02:55] Take a wife and make a stand

[00:02:57] Be the givinest guy I can be

[00:03:01] And when I get back to this neighborhood

[00:03:03] There'd be a big gigantic pile of wood

[00:03:05] And I'd say: What's this I see --You'd tell me

[00:03:09] That's all the lumber--that's all the lumber

[00:03:13] That's all the lumber you sent

[00:03:18] Big boss'll help you hammer it all together

[00:03:22] That's all the lumber you sent"

[00:03:29] That's all the lumber--that's all the lumber

[00:03:33] That's all the lumber you sent

[00:03:37] Big boss'll help you hammer it all together

[00:03:41] That's all the lumber you sent"
