[00:00.00]In The Middle Of The House (Original) - Alma Cogan
[00:07.13]The railroad comes through the middle of the house
[00:09.74]The railroad comes through the middle of the house
[00:12.28]The trains all come through the middle of the house
[00:14.85]Since the company bought the land
[00:22.63]They let us live in the front of the house
[00:25.31]They let us live in the back
[00:27.52]But there ain't no living in the middle of the house
[00:30.33]'Cause that's the railroad track
[00:32.89]When a bill collector comes to the house
[00:35.48]He knocks and bangs on the door
[00:37.95]So we sit him right down in the middle of the house
[00:40.98]And he never comes back no more
[00:42.99]No he never comes back no more
[00:45.80]The railroad comes through the middle of the house
[00:48.79]The railroad comes through the middle of the house
[00:51.38]It comes and goes through the middle of the house
[00:53.86]And the trains are all on time
[00:56.45]And here comes the five-o-nine
[01:04.75]The railroad comes through the middle of the house
[01:07.33]The in and out of the middle of the house
[01:10.02]Right smack dab through the middle of the house
[01:12.38]Where the parlor used to be
[01:20.10]There's a great big door in the front of the house
[01:23.12]There's a little old door in the back
[01:25.44]But we can't have doors in the middle of the house
[01:28.26]Cause that's the railroad track
[01:30.67]A relative came to visit the house
[01:33.63]He liked to scream and fuss
[01:35.93]So we sat him right down in the middle of the house
[01:39.04]And he never more bothered us
[01:40.98]No he never more bothered us
[01:44.06]Oh the railroad comes through the middle of the house
[01:46.90]The railroad comes through the middle of the house
[01:49.50]It comes and goes through the middle of the house
[01:52.11]Since the trains are all on land
[01:54.58]I'm singing this song in the middle of the house
