Texty: Yo La Tengo. Otras Canciones. House Fall Down.

:
I met a tugboat captain
The stories he could tell
Of a sailor's life in the shallow water
The saddest yarn he'd spin
It happened on dry land
He saw his house fall down
It shed its bricks and it dropped to the ground
Ah, well, made him feel so bad
he thinks about it and he cries

Ah, well, made him feel so mad
Don't want to think about it now

You never walk out, or even look away
He had a house torn down
Swipe a deed and start breaking ground
Drop some mortar, we'll be ripping up your asphalt
Another house goes down, and another house
And another drops to the ground, drops to the ground
