Talking In Code

Little Red House
Written by Glen Burtnik

When it's hot it's hot
Hotter than hell is supposed to be
When it's cold it's so cold
You can hardly see

I've been other places
None looked this good to me
Yeah, I'm right where I wanna be

Wanna live in my little red house
Wanna stay in the shade of a towering tree
Wanna live in my little red house
You come on my street, you answer to me

Whoa

And I got one big hurt
I got in the war, for what it's worth
My father before me lived and died
For this piece of earth

There goes my TV
Talk about a world of fear
And I don't like what I hear
No

Wanna live in my little red house
Wanna stay in the shade of a towering tree
Wanna live in my little red house
You come on my street, you answer to me

Yeah

Wanna live in my little red house, my little red house
Wanna stay in the shade of a towering tree
Wanna live in my little red house
You come on my street, you answer to me

Hey, hey, whoa, whoa, hey, hey, whoa
Hey, hey, whoa, whoa, hey, hey

I'm right where I wanna be
Where nothing, nothing can hurt me
Whoa

Wanna live in my little red house
Wanna stay in the shade of a towering tree
Wanna live in my little red house
You walk this way, you talk to me

Wanna live in my little red house
Wanna stay in the shade of a towering tree
Wanna live in my little red house
You're gonna have to deal with me

Wanna live in my little red house, yeah
Wanna stay in the shade of a towering tree
Wanna live in my little red house
You don't wanna mess with me

Wanna live in my little red house
Wanna stay in the shade of a towering tree....
