"You're Always Welcome At Our House" lyrics - SHEL SILVERSTEIN
Well a man came to our house,
Our house, our house,
A man came to our house to sell some brooms.
So we asked him to come in
And we hit him with the hammer
And we hid him in the closet in my father's room.
But you're always welcome at our house
Any time of day
Yes, you're always welcome at our house
And we hope you will stay
Then a lady came to our house
Our house, our house,
A lady came to find out why I wasn't in school.
So we asked her to come in
And we gave her some poison lemonade
And hid her in the freezer where it's nice and cool.
But you're always welcome at our house
Any time of day
Yes, you're always welcome at our house
And we hope you will stay
Then a kid came into our yard
Our yard, our yard,
A kid came into our yard to get his ball.
So we asked him to come in
And we took him in the basement
And we sealed him up inside the basement wall.
But you're always welcome at our house
Any time of day
Yes, you're always welcome at our house
And we hope you will stay
So when you come to our house
Our house, our house,
When you come to our house we'll have some fun.
We'll ask you to come in
And we'll take you in the kitchen
And we'll put you in the oven until you're done.
But you're always welcome at our house
Any time of day
Yes, you're always welcome at our house
And we hope you will stay
And we know, you will stay.
