Come on Up to the House Lyrics

[Chorus]
You gotta come on up to the house
Come on up to the house
The world is not my home
I'm just a-passin' through

You gotta come on up to the house, yeah

[Chorus]
You gotta come on up to the house
Come on up to the house
The world is not my home
I'm just a-passin' through

You gotta come on up to the house

[Verse 3]
There's nothin in the world that you can do
You gotta come on up to the house

And you been whipped by the forces that are inside you
Gotta come on up to the house


Well, you're high on top of your mountain of woe
Gotta come on up to the house

Well, you know you should surrender, but you can't let go
You gotta come on up to the house, yeah


[Chorus]
Gotta come on up to the house
Gotta come on up to the house
The world is not my home
I'm just a-passin' through

You gotta come on up to the house
Gotta come on up to the house
You gotta come on up to the house, oh yeah

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
